My last post was just pictures so I guess I shall write a little about life currently/recently. Our bug a boo is 5.5 months old & I can't believe it. Please stop! I want to experience my bug as a newborn, hours old! I think about what I'd do differently but you can't go back. She is getting so fun. I am her mom & that fact is amazing. I think people would call me a laid-back mom. I didn't mind letting family calm her when she cried, if fact I usually laughed. She's very stubborn & knows what she wants when she wants. There were times when she just wanted me, no one else, & that truly was amazing! Being the person who as soon as she was in my arms she was calm & went right to sleep. I can't say that I've never taken her for granted because there are times I have. But there are also times when I'm in complete awe of what is. I thank God every night for her, Every Single Night! But enough with the gush!
Our girl can roll over front to back & back to front. I don't know if she has the hang of it but she can do it. :) She is starting to enjoy tummy time & I am more confident letting her sit more upright in her swing. She actually plays with toys now & can grab things quite well. Her little grasp can hurt! My face or hands have bared the scratches. She is fasinated by our dogs. If they're really close she'll grab at them or touch them. Cinnamon still prefers her space from Katie but once in a while she'll come close & has even kissed her. I think she's definitely accepted by them, even if it's stubbornly. :) Our girl is now eating! What?!?! My baby can't be moving onto foods yet! But she is! She's had rice cereal & oatmeal and she has tried broccoli, avocado, & carrots. She's also gotten tastes of foods from family members but I'm talking about sitting in her seat or bumbo & eating. Like a big girl! She's getting the hang of eating finally & eats pretty well. I don't know if it's just because carrots were the last new taste for her but she seems to love carrots. Of course we'll try avocado again & she may love that too. I think corn is the next new veggie she'll try. I make my own baby food & I actually love it. It's a bit of a pain in the butt but I also really enjoy it. I like knowing her food is fresh & it's really easy. I smashed bananas today & also made applesauce. So weird it is to be making baby food when there are times I can't believe we have a baby. Or that she's nearly 6 months old! EEK!
Well, that's about it. The creature is stirring & it's eating time. Have a great day/week!
