Laney 6 months

Half way there!  I can't believe how old this little girl is already.  She is just a bundle of joy and smiles.



About Laney:
  • She is wearing 3-6 month clothes and size 2 diapers
  • Laney has started holding her own bottle as well.
  • We are doing a little formula and breast feeding.  I always struggle keeping up around the 5 month mark, but am doing what I can.  She eats 5 oz or 6 oz bottles now.  She gets very excited when she sees them.  She does go longer stretches between them though, sometimes 4 or 5 hours.
  • Sleep is going well.  She has starting sleeping through the night more.  I wouldn't say completely yet though.  Every now and then she still wakes up.  She has started rolling to her side and belly to sleep which is new.  She goes to bed earlier now as well.  About 7:30 or 8 she just wears out and starts rubbing her eyes and crying to be cuddled and put to sleep.
  • Her smile still lights up her face and anyone around her.  She is such a happy baby.  People are always asking if she ever cries.
  • Laney has made progress with her sitting.  We try to put some older toys in front of her now, and she will sit and play.  She loves all of the lights and sounds they make.
  • This little lady has popped her 2 bottom teeth out this month.  I couldn't believe it.  She drools so much with them.
  • Laney likes to be a part of the action especially when food is involved.  If we try to eat dinner without her she will cry until she gets her way :)  She tries to grab at any food or dish in front of her.  Makes eating with her a fun task.  I think we will start trying the baby food when school is out.
  • Luke and Lawson still adore her.  They don't like when she goes to bed before them because they don't get to give hugs and kisses with the rest of the family.  We have them do it before she goes to bed, but its just not the same thing.  Some nights they even sneak in here room to tell her good night before they jump in bed.  I love that they find it so important to include her.
  • We have started spending more time outside and she enjoys the fresh air and watching all the activities going on around her.
