Sleeping
Jaylee is finally sleeping through the night!!!
Ryan started getting up with her and he would just give her a hug and lay her back down.
Then in about 30 minutes or less she would be back to sleep.
After a week or two of that she stopped waking up.
Now she is sleeping 12-13 hours every night!
Jaylee is mostly down to two naps a day at this point.
Her naps are 1-2 hours long and she is awake 2 hours between naps.
Feeding
With the drop to two naps we also dropped down to four nursing sessions a day.
I have added a bottle at her bedtime feeding.
She usually drinks an extra 2-3 oz.
She is eating solids and three meals and usually a snack in the afternoon.
She gets spoon fed stuff first and then finger foods until she is full.
She can pretty much eat any food now.
She does great with small pieces of any food soft enough for her to gum (cooked vegetables, fruit, cheese, breads, noodles, and meat)
Playing
Jaylee is a crawling machine!!
By 7 months she was army crawling and now she is up on all fours.
She can get anywhere she wants and has started to pull herself up on furniture or stairs.
She loves to crawl around and explore the basement.
If she is upstairs she will always head straight for the stairs so we've had to really watch her.
She is sitting by herself and can get from laying to sitting and vice versa unassisted.
She got her top two teeth this month.
She loves to kick, splash, and roll in the bath.
She has a little diamond shaped pillow that is her favorite toy right now.
She will bring it with her everywhere.
She also is attached to her taggie.
If we go somewhere new or for a longer car drive it really helps if she has it with her.
She loves to play pat-a-cake!
She is definitely a mama's girl.
If she sees me while anyone else is holding her she loses it.
Her siblings still love to hold her and now play with her.
Now that she can crawl she will chase them around and try to steal what they are playing with.
We love this energetic happy baby!
