5 months.

last friday :) avery is such a big girl!!!

i have no idea on height & weight but she’s definitely growing!!

avery is:

  • still wearing a size 2 diaper but as soon as we finish off all the size 2s we received as gifts, she will be moving on up to size 3s.they are getting a little snug but still do the job :) i’m a little sad about this because that means she will be moving from swaddlers {pampers} to cruisers which also means my little girl is growing up:(
  • still wearing 9 and 12 month clothes
  • taking 3-5 ounces at 7ish, 10ish, 1ish, 4ish, and 730ish. sometimes it’s more! i have just {hopefully} broken her of the eating in the middle of the night habit. the past few nights i haven’t given her a bottle until at least 5 am so here’s hoping it sticks!!
  • still eating solids. she has now had sweet potatoes, avocado, apple, and banana. the apple made her a little gassy so we’ll hold off on that for awhile but she seems to enjoy the other foods! i’m also still making all of her food which has worked out pretty nicely! she will eat solids at breakfast and dinner and usually has one of her foods paired with rice cereal, oatmeal, and breastmilk. she is doing so much better “eating” as well. while still messy, it’s not quite as bad as it was at first :)
  • still incredibly happy & such a sweet baby! you know for sure something is wrong when she cries.
  • so aware of her brother. they will giggle at each other for no reason and crack each other up!
  • also very aware of her puppies. she thinks they are hilarious! she has started grabbing & pinching things recently so they may need to keep their distance because i bet one of their ears would be an easy target!
  • still loving her toys and still putting EVERYTHING in her mouth.
  • is a drool machine! she has been for awhile now and we can only guess teething but evan did this and didn’t get his first tooth for forever so who knows!
  • a total wiggle worm! if she’s not strapped in, she can wiggle out of just about anything. this morning, i got her out of her crib and she was on the opposite end facing the opposite direction! silly girl!
  • a chatterbox! there are times she will “talk” for 20 minutes straight.
  • able to sit on the couch if she’s leaned against the back cushions.

love this girl!
