Everyone told us that the first six months would be the difficult part, and that after that each month would get more fun. And we are definitely feeling like that will prove true for us:)
Some new things to report-- She is crawling like crazy..well more like an army crawl to be exact,hehe...and the days of leaving her to play on a blanket contentedly with a few toys are over. But that's okay with us- she is at such a fun stage! She had her first big belly laugh last week. And we are beginning the fun of feeding her solids- starting with little bits of avocado this week. I am hoping to make her foods myself, though I know some people may think I'm crazy!, but it will be fun for me.:)
Also this week, she has a little tiny piece of a tooth peeking through.
She is beginning to seem like such a little person. It's so fun to see her little personality coming through. She is definitely a happy and chatty little girl - and just so pleasant to be around these days. I'm always texting Bron during his work day, things like - 'Emmy is being so cute today!'.
We figured out that she has issues digesting dairy and egg-whites, which I would eat lots of every day! But not any more. But that too, is okay. She seems to be fussing less since we made that change, though it could also be her age and teething not as bad as before? Anyway, instead of spitting up like every 5 minutes, she spits up just a couple times a day. A very welcome change in my daily life:)
No, we are still not sleeping through the night, if you're wondering. But Bron and I are getting the hang of an evening routine with her, so things are a little more predictable. So thankful for advice and wisdom of more experienced moms who've helped!
Update- here is Emmy with her first taste of avocado. We have since aquired a highchair and a baby spoon, don't worry:) The back arch at the end is another new talent.
