:) Just an UPDATE

Jossalyn will be 7 months - yes SEVEN months - on Saturday. So I thought I would update you on things she can do or likes!

1- Sleeps through the night, has been sleeping 11-13 hours a night since about 8 weeks. Now given there will be a night or two here or there that she wakes up and wants changed and lays right back down but its few and far between.

2- Has a very set daily schedule and DEFINITELY doesn't like when it fluctuates.

  • Wakes up 6:30 am and nurses
    M-F I keep her up at this point; she sits in her swing and watches NOGGIN while I get ready so she takes her morning nap with whoever is watching her or on Sat/Sun she goes back to sleep for alittle bit.
  • Wakes up and nurses then eats breakfast (she is eating 2 cubes of the babyfood I made and froze or oatmeal).
  • Naps shortly after anywhere from 40mins to 2 hours at best.
  • Wakes and nurses and plays until 1 pm nap and repeat again at 4. She also eats lunch (see above fruit or veggie).
    These naps are usually shorter (30mins to 1 hr).
  • Wakes and plays with Derek until time to eat dinner and goes to bed between 6 and 8pm.3 - She can sit up on her own.

4- Can roll over from belly to back AND back to belly.

5- Can do the "push up" position. And is doing little hops instead of crawling. She likes to stand up on her feet while on her hands and knees.

6- Loves to babble - baba, dada are the two most popular sounds coming from her these days!

7- LOVES to be sung to or when you play the guitar to her.

8- She is a dog lover - she thinks Hunter is hilarious. She likes to pet her aka: grabbing fistsfuls of her fur.

9- She loves the camera!!! (or anything that is too expensive for her to play with. Her #1 is our cellphones)

10- She likes to be surprised.

I really feel like a blog-loser since I have really slacked on the posting front but hopefully after this Friday I will start to feel better and get more done each day so I can spend sometime updating everyone!!!

Knowing things will NEVER be the same is the most difficult part.

Happy Birthday to my Derek!! Hope your day is less sucky than the last few have been. Too bad we don't get to spend it together since I'll be working and then you will be.
