Bethanie - 7 months

I am now 7 months and boy have I changed over the last few weeks.

I am now doing the worm/crawling to get to the things I want. This is not making my brother very happy bc I keep touching all of his things.

I have started to have a lot of seperation anxiety. I cry when people other than my mommy hold me and I hate it when my mommy walks out of a room even if I can still see her.

I am now wearing 6-9 month clothes and am still in size 2 diapers but will soon be moving to size 3s.

I eat 3 meals a day and love eating my solids.

I get 4 - 6 oz bottles a day. I usually sleep all through the night now but on the occasion still wake up at night.

I typically take 2 one hour naps a day and go to bed at 745 and get up at 630 in the morning.

Dislikes: being put down, seeing my mommy and she isn't holding me, being strapped into my carseat,

Likes: eating puffs and solids, my bottles, my brother, taking baths, watching my brother and dogs run around,

Bethanie - 6 months

I am now six months and have learned so many new things this month. I am now a rolling machine and I can turn myself around in a circle to get to things I want. I have started babbling some and I definitely let mom and dad know when I am not happy with something. I have started having some seperation anxiety and I don't like it when mom, dad or Joel walk out of a room. I am quite the wiggle worm to and make it hard for anyone who is holding me. I still liked to be held a lot but I also like to get down on the floor and get into things.

I am currently eating 2 meals a day. I eat breakfast and dinner. New foods I have tried this month: peaches, pears, banana, peas, green beans, strawberries.

I am still wearing size 3-6 clothes and size 2 diapers.

Likes: baths, puffs, grabbing things, watching the dogs, playing with Joel, getting into things, being held,

Dislikes: being left alone, going down for naps, having my face washed, being strapped into my carseat.

6 month appointment

Bethanie had her 6 month appointment this morning and is doing great. She weighs 14 lbs 6 oz which is in the 25th percentile. Her height is 24 1/8 inches which is in the 10th percentile and her head is 43 1/4 inches.

The today show

This morning Matt and I woke up really early and took the kids downtown to see the today show live from Indianapolis. It was amazing. It was super busy but we got on TV during the cooking segment which was around 8:30 AM. You could see Matt and Bethanie a lot but there are just a few little segments of me lasting just a second. Here are some pics from the morning.

Super Bowl Village

Last night Matt and I had the opportunity to go downtown without the kids and check out the Super Bowl Village. We had a lot of fun checking out all the activities downtown and seeing the big roman numerals on the circle. Here are some pics of the fun.

Bethanie - 5 months

I am 5 months old now and boy am I learning new things everyday.

I have started eating baby food this month and I think that it is alright. So far I have tried carrots, sweet potato and avacados.

Today I have been a rolling machine rolling front to back and back to front. I rolled all the way across the room for the first time:).

I am currently eating 5-6 oz of formula at a time and eating one meal of baby food a day. I take two naps a day usually a 45 min one in the morning and a 2 hour one in the afternoon. I am wearing 3-6 month clothes and size 2 diapers.

I just started sleeping through the night this month also. I sleep from about 7:30 pm to 630 AM.

Likes: eating, watching the dogs and my big brother run around, baths, rolling, being talked to,

Dislikes: having my face washed, being put down for naps, being alone in a room, being strapped into my carseat,

1st try at baby food

A few nights ago I tried baby food for the first time. Carrots was on the menu but I wasn't to sure about it.
