Okay it is time for the updates to start slowing down! Want to keep you little LONGER. You bring such Joy to every day of our life and me and Kyle just can’t get enough of you.

2 ear infections this month made it hard for you. but even hard for you isn’t that bad at all. You are such a chill baby and took it so well. Your awesome dad brought you in both times. the amox just didn’t do the trick so second time got something else to kick it. That one had you feeling great 12 hours later and never looking back. Because of all the teething and ear infections you just did NOT want to nurse much or take a bottle which made my milk supply drop and makes me SO sad. Going to still keep at it though! You love to nurse and i love to nurse you. has to be in a quiet room otherwise you just cant focus.

Sleep was rough the nights on the ear infection and usually had to be on mom so it didnt hurt much. but the your night sleeping got SO much better this month! like sleeping through the night some nights better!!! You love your crib now which makes it so much easier too that you are happy to be laid to bed and dont scream when i put you back in there after nursing. take great long naps also and able to put her own paci back in. have your two naps a day and STILL cant kick that 3rd cat nap. it’ll change in no time tho so no need to hurry it. More clingy than other months and doesn’t want to be far from us

Girlfriend LOVES to eat food. she’s already kind of over cheerios and baby snacks, some days loves baby food and other days refuses to open that little mouth for it. Has to be room temperature but when it comes to supper…. that girls wants to DOWN whatever everyone else is eating. I try to make most of our suppers things that are easy for you and you down so much. you love all proteins. doesn’t like blueberries like the rest of her siblings were obsessed with. Not interested in bottles or sippys. like to be on our lap getting your food instead of high chair.

love to play with Betsey’s dollhouse. loves the jolly jumper and exersaucer. loves baby dolls. loves to stand. trying to figure out crawling and had a few head tumbles. still doesn’t want to be on that tummy. very coordinated with toys. just started copying what you see Betsey do. Loved your first Christmas and being in the middle of all the action. enjoyed wrapping paper a lot and ripping it and putting it in your mouth. Got baby doll, clothes, first ornament, water table and blanket. Did great about all the get togethers and going to sleep wherever we were. Loves baths and showers.. You truly are just such a joy.

hair is growing longer and changing colors a bit. still have those beautiful blue eyes. seems that face has been thinning a little. hung around 18 lbs through the ear infection and loss of appetite. wearing size 3 or 4 diaper whichever i grab. clothes are around 9 months. still SO SO tall.
