6 Months



Mallory is growing so much and finally starting to get to that age that I love. She's doing great and is a happy baby most of the time. Her 6 month checkup was last Friday and the doctor said she looked great! Below are her stats and her developmental accomplishments.

Stats:
~Weight -- 13.11 lbs (5-10%)
~ Height -- 26 inches (50%)

What She's Doing:
~rolls over tummy to back
~rolls from back to tummy (as of Monday 1/17)
~LOVES to play in her exersaucer (she plays with the toys on it way more at this age than Finn did)
~is taking 5 bottles a day 6-7 oz each (I stopped nursing at Thanksgiving due to a stomach bug/low supply/soy formula for 2 weeks)
~takes 3 naps a day - Typically 9:00, 1:00, and 5:00. Her morning nap is usually her longest (2 hrs) while the other 2 tend to be 45 min - 1hr)
~we have not started baby food yet. We'll probably start in a couple of days or so. I'm not in as big of a hurry this time. Just one more thing to do ;)
~absolutely LOVES her big brother!! He can make her laugh like no other. He cracks her up. I'm so glad that they're already good friends--let's just hope it lasts.
~holds her hands like a Von Trapp
~JUST transitioned from sleeping in her carseat to her bed last week. She then proceeded to roll over to her tummy swaddled.

~ we're weaning from swaddling. she still sleeps swaddled with 1 arm in during naps and at night sleeps with both arms out but the swaddled still around her tummy and legs.

~still wakes up 1/2 the time for her 'dream feed' between 9:30-10
~when she's on her tummy scoots and turns all around on her playmat
~loves to suck on her fingers and the paci

~is wearing 3 month, 3-6 month, and 6 month sized clothes

That's all I can think of for now.
