SEVEN MONTHS!
Our baby girl is growing SO fast and changing, literally, everyday.
Approximately 16.5 pounds -- the perfect size
Length:
I'm not entirely sure... she's still wearing her six month sleepers, so her length/height might have stayed constant this month.
She wears mostly six-month clothes, but I've pulled out a few nine-month clothes. Most of the nine-month clothes I put her in are more because they are summer clothes and I want her to wear them while the weather is nice.
Eating:
Breast milk and lots of fruits and veggies. She likes a variety of food tastes and textures -- the food that is her favorite one day, she won't like the next day. So far she has tasted avocado, banana, tomatoes, butternut squash, pickles, applesauce, carrots, blueberries, corn, tuna, chicken, peaches, watermelon, melon, pineapple and pears... maybe more, but that's what I can remember. She is gaining such hand-eye coordination, and grip-strength by our encouraging her to feed herself. We are LOVING the baby-led weaning we're doing.
She's officially been in her nursery for about three weeks, and she is doing really well. It has been a great month for us sleep-wise -- she is sleeping about nine-hours at night, then, after a feeding, she will sleep for another two hours. We nave a really nice night time routine, and we're feeling good about sleeping this month. During the day, she takes about three naps, each about an hour a piece. We are all more rested this month. Praise God!
