6 Month Update

Sleep:
We saw some regression in your sleep this month as mommy went back to work.  Unfortunately you are no longer sleeping threw the night like you were before. Going to sleep around 8pm and then waking up at 1am wanting to snuggle and nurse with mama. Also some teething is going on so that is adding to some of the sleep issues.

Feeding:  Mommy went back to work this month so you are now being bottle fed 2 times a day at the babysitters.  Those bottles are 6 oz. Nursing in the morning before mommy goes to work and at night before bed. A total of 4 feedings a day. Can't wait to start you on solid foods this next month.

  

Weight:
13 pounds 8.6 ounces

Length: 
25.2 inches

Diapers and Clothes: 
Size 1 diapers, moving up to size 2 shortly. Moved to 3-6 month summer clothes. 

Personality/Likes/Miscellaneous:
- Hello toes, they are one of you new play toys.  
- You have become one drooly baby as you have gone into full teething mode. You go threw at least two bibs on most days. 
- We introduced Sophie the Giraffe to you this month for your teething, you enjoy it so much that we don't dare leave the house without it.  
- What a vocal baby you have become.  You have a ton to say, especially in the morning
- The jumparoo is getting frequent use these days as you continue to love standing. Lying down is for the birds, you would much rather be upright and seeing whats going on.  
- Still a very happy baby. Where has the time gone. You are growing so fast.  I want to tell you to slow down and stay my little baby for just a while longer.

5 Month Update

Sleep:
Sleep training, probably the hardest thing we have gone threw to date.  Much more traumatic for mama then for baby.  The first night was by far the worst. But after about an hour an a half total you went to seep in your crib, and threw out the night you would wake up and mama would come in and comfort you. Not much sleep that first night.  Second night was much better.  Third night even better as you were sleeping pretty much threw the night without fussing.  On average you sleep from 8pm till 5am so mama can't complain.  We are both getting much more sleep these nights but mama misses you snuggling next to her.
Naps are about 3 times a day, depending on the day your longest is about 2 hours long and the other two can range from 30 minutes to an hour

Feeding:You are still nursing every 4 hours for an hour.  Hopefully this will speed up as you get older. You nurse 4 times a day and no longer nursing at night

Diapers and Clothes: 
Size 1 diapers and 0-3 month clothes. Some 3-6 month summer clothes. Daddy calls you Tinny Dancer.

Personality/Likes/Miscellaneous:
- You rolled over from tummy to back a few days after turning 4 months old and have been doing it constantly ever since
- Standing is your new favorite thing.  You can stand with all your body weight on your legs and think its just wonderful and want mama to help you stand often
-You continue to get more and more talkative.  Hearing yourself yell at a very high pitch is something we hear quite frequently.  Love hearing all the new noises you discover
- Giggling and smiling threw your days, you are just a very happy baby
- Mama's baby blanket has become your favorite also.  I don't think its going to make it threw another generation so its time to get you your own blankee
