*Weighs 15 pounds 3 ounces
*26 inches long/tall
*Crawls and pulls herself up to a stand
*Lights up when we play Patty Cake with her or sing "If you're happy and you know it"
*Nurses 5 times a day and once at night--FINALLY!
*Takes two longs nap per day (one around 9 am) and the other around (1pm)
*Goes to bed around 7:30pm, nurses around 1:30 or 2am and then gets up for the day around 6:30 or 7am
*Continues to love her brothers, although she does have a favorite (but I'm not naming names)
*Is very much a mama's girl--she is content to just have me hold her and do all of my chores with her in my arms most of the time. If she's tired or hungry I can just pick her up and carry her around and she's content
*I continue to pump two times a day to keep supply up for her. And then I use the pumped milk to give back to her in a sippy cup or her cereal.
*Speaking of cereal, she does not eat well at all. We made some progress toward the end of the month with eating solids, but not a lot. She does not consistently eat even her baby food (an ounce every few days or so) and completely refuses all actual solid foods (puffs, meats, cheeses, peas, etc.)
*She coos and squeals with the best of them but has not started babbling.
*Because of these last two items, the pediatrician has written a referral for her for speech and feeding therapy. Ugghhhh.....I seriously need to write a post about therapy. You'd be surprised what has been going on over here with all of that. Let's just say she's the 3rd child to have a referral for therapy. I have one child currently in OT and speech therapy. Another child is beginning the OT process. And now this. Clearly, there's a lot more to our story.
*She's a doll and we just love her!
