6 MONTHS!
I seriously can't believe how fast these past 2 months have flown by! We love our Ivy girl so much.
Here is what life is like with Ivy these days:
-She can sit up on her own for a minute or so then she topples over. We practice with her.
-I pretty much exclusively nurse her. No formula, and she has only had rice cereal a couple of times.
-We gave her some baby food for her 6 month birthday and she spit it all out :)
-Ivy has been acting like she's teething for a couple weeks now. She has been sleeping like a newborn and pretty fussy during the day, always with her hands in her mouth. I hope she is getting them all in at once so we can be done with teething!
-Her gums randomly started bleeding the other day, but I haven't seen any teeth yet.
-We finally moved her into her own room. I miss her a lot in the pack n play right next to our bed.
-She laughs at Cooper the most.
-She loves to smile! She is always looking for somebody to look at and smile at.
-She coos and talks a lot.
-Her favorite song is "you are my sunshine". I know its weird to have a favorite song at this age but she always smiles the biggest when I sing that song to her. She LOVES it.
-Her favorite games are pat-a-cake and when we sing the "dance as fast as you want to" song from the library and make her dance. The boys love doing these with her.
-She has finally started using binkys. I don't know how I feel about that. She usually only uses it for sleep though.
-She hates when I paint her nails because of the smell. As soon as I open the bottle, she screams.
-She is rolling all over the place (both ways) but not scooting at all!
-She has started loving lotion rubs
-She still loves bath time
-Her naps aren't very consistent because I always drag her along to playgroup activities for the boys. If she could, she would love to nap at 10 and 1. Her morning nap is usually just 1-2 hours, but she can nap for hours in the afternoon. She is tired by 7-8 pm but she is on sleep restrictions in the evening because of her bad sleeping at night lately :)
-Her disposition is the very sweetest. She is pretty much always good, she is such a happy baby with the biggest smile.
-We try not to spoil her but kind-of can't help it :)
