Seven Months!
 |
| Those cheeks! |
(for some reason blogger won't upload my pictures in the correct rotation)
Weight: 19 lbs. (done at home)
Eating: Sissy girl tried her first bite of solid food on her 7th month - avocado! She was super ready for it and did really well for her first time! Other than that, she still nurses 5 times a day. She weaned herself off of the middle of the night feeding and has been sleeping through the night all month! For some reason, Lydia likes her milk a lot more than she normally does. She gets super excited when it is time to eat and "dive bombs" towards me and latches on to anything she can - often my belly or arm. :-P
Sleeping: Like I mentioned above, Lyds weaned herself off the middle of the night nursing and has been sleeping through the night. Bedtime around 7:30 PM and she sleeps solid until around 7 AM. Since her room isn't complete at our new house, she is sleeping in our room again. It doesn't seem to bother her at all. She does like to kick her feet a lot in her sleep so it often wakes me up though.
Naps are sort of hit or miss. She normally takes a decent morning (around 9-10ish) and late afternoon nap (around 2ish). I still try to get her to take that third nap, but even when I am successful she only really naps for a short amount of time.
New Skills: This month as been so fun! She is really gaining so much personality and skills! She sits like a pro and her eye-hand coordination often amazes me. No really "new" skills, just perfectly all of them. She also laughs at everything now, unlike before. I often catch her just giggling to herself.
She Loves: Loves playing with brother, which is awesome because they will play together while I get work done. Charlie loves it too. She still hates a bottle, but I recently discovered that she loves brothers cup, so I just bought her one. She loves frozen chew toys, walks, bath time, kiss attacks, Theo (she recently took a great liking to him), and bouncing (whether that be in her bounce or making herself bounce in her chair, or even when brother bounces her on the bed).
She Doesn't Like: She hates being tired, and trying different types of pacis. Other than that, girlfriend is easy going. Oh she does HATE it when she topples over from sitting. Even if it's not hard, she gets very upset.
Exciting Things We Did:
We moved! ...and I only have one picture...
We went to Summer Blast at church...Lydia slept the whole time, but brother had fun.
We went to farm days at Oregon Dairy... Lydia slept the whole time, but brother had fun. :-P

A Note to Lydia: My sweet sweet girl, I love you so much! May you always know deep down in your heart that you are truly cherished and treasured. Thanks for teaching me so much. May your giggles always be abundant and your wonder endless. I love watching you grow up and learn about the world around you. Your brother is pretty fond of you too... if you can't tell from these photos :-P How in the world are you seven months old already?!
