It's been 6 months which means an entire half of a year has past since we received the best blessing in the world, Ramona Christine. She decided she wanted to knock out some major milestones right before she turned the big 0.5
Firsts this month:
Ear infection - (worst first ever) She finally fully recovered from the battle of ear infection coupled with congestion that had our hearts breaking.
Pulling herself up in her bouncer
Sitting up which she has become really good at it lately! Sitting for sometimes several minutes at a time.
Slept through the night 2 nights in a row...then back to normal waking up and spending the rest of the night in our bed.
Rolled Over from back to front which has actually made her like being on her tummy more than she ever has.
Solids are still not her strong suit, but we are trudging along. She has had applesauce, carrots, and sweet potatoes. She likes applesauce best but is very far from figuring out the whole spoon thing.
First Easter with lots of clothes and cute stuff. Wonder if she'll be walking next year so she can hunt eggs.
Nick took her to the doctor today. Ramona is 25 and 1/2 inches long and 15 lbs. 8 oz. Wow she is getting big! She is average in height and weight. She is slightly overweight for her heigh but nothing major.
I have made it to my goal of 6 months of breast feeding. I am very proud that I made it this far. I don't know how much longer I will continue although Ramona pretty much dictates what she wants when it comes to food. If she won't take a bottle, then she gives me no choice. Like mother like daughter! I really don't want to stop though. She doesn't have teeth yet so that's a plus, but even when she gets teeth, I don't know if I will just pump exclusively or what.
