Well, its been quite the week! Little one had a "Baby well" Dr's appointment on Monday. I love these appointments because I get to see how much she has grown and how much she weighs, etc. My doctor gives us a print out of her height and weight on a chart that also has previous visits plotted on it. At 6 months old, I have a 'tall' and small baby LOL She is only 14.8lbs! Hehe. Just a tiny little thing. But when I asked him if she is doing well for her age, he said she couldn't be doing any better :) That's always nice to hear. It's almost like a conformation that I am doing the right things.
She had her 6 month needles yesterday. She did very well. Cried more than last time, but didn't cry for long. She is such a trooper! After her needles were finished, every time the nurse would come near her, little one would start breathing faster like she was going to start crying again!
We took her over to my mom's house last night and put her on the carpet. When we put her toy a few feet in front of her, she pulled herself towards it until she could grasp it. This has been going on for a little bit, but my mom had never seen it. I wish I could have taken a picture of my mom's face! She was so excited! I loved it. Today, little one is almost crawling! She lifts herself up off of the ground and gets her legs and arms going at the same time! She is moving a lot more, and a lot faster. She's just not lifting her belly that far off of the ground yet. I give it a week and she'll be zooming around here. Time to baby-proof the house!
On Tues, I was putting up our new curtains in the living room. I had little one in her swing, and she was watching everything I was doing very intently. I hung the valance scarf, but it didn't look right. I stood back and asked her what she thought and she did the razz noise! HAHA I loved it. I said "yeah it does look pretty bad doesn't it?" And she made the noise again! We both had a great laugh over that.
She has been eating rice cereal since sunday. She gets it twice a day at lunch and at supper so far. I'm not sure if I am supposed to be feeding her solids with every meal or not, but I think for now, this is ok.... I'm always playing the guessing game.... I think motherhood is one big guessing game....Today, I had her in her highchair and I was trying to feed her some of her rice cereal. She likes to try to feed herself, so her hands are always covered in the sticky mess that was once a meal.... haha. Today she decided that her eyes needed rubbing.... HAHA what a mess. It was everywhere! I loved it. We, again, had a big laugh over that. She loves to laugh!
