I thought i ought to just put a bit of “where she is at” for posterity, since i don’t get all that much time to talk about her.
So…
STILL hasn’t rolled over, although if you put her on her front she holds herself up well. She can get half over, she just hasn’t gone right over. Amazing really, all the others were crawling by this age. Mind you, the others adore carrying her about. She probably thinks, “why have a dog and bark yourself?”
Foodwise, still loves boob, perhaps not quite as much, she feeds more infrequently now and has solid tea in the evenings for the last 10 days or so. Since introducing solids, she doesn’t snap awake the minute i move her, so she goes down in her crib at 11pm ish and sleeps through. This morning she didn’t wake up till 10am! She has this fabulous Miss Piggy like “hie-yah!” noise she makes when i get my boob out for her and she lurches for it, really makes me laugh!
She loves her sisters, really missed them at the weekend, has a gorgeous smile, plays with toys now, says “mum.. mum” and “da..da…dada….da..”
Very pink cheeks but no teeth yet, still got her stork marks, plus the odd raised white patches on her tummy are raisng up a bit more too. Slightly eczema-y on her chest, hopefully its impending tooth related. Nothing like Ammi’s was.
Only other thing to say is that she is fast approaching the 9-12 month range of clothing, out of her last lot of baby gros now. Oh yeah, and i adore her.
