Okay, starting this week things have gotten easier. I imagine it’s because
1) she knows us better now and we her
2) she is officially on US time and is sleeping all through the night
3) she is starting to nap more (not on my chest) up to 1.5 hours total
4) Ryan is being an awesome big brother and learning how to help Mommy
5) We are getting into a routine
6) I am figuring out what all the noises she makes mean
7) I don’t have to carry her ALL THE TIME
Now Caroline is:
20 1/2 lbs
30 inches tall
A really good eater
Funny
Easy to please (once you figure out what she wants!)
Adores her Oppa (Ryan)
Doesn’t show a preference for doll/girl stuff over boy stuff
Crawling EVERYWHERE
Cruises as much as she can
Holds one finger (of yours) and will walk to what she wants by herself
Stands by herself for longer and longer times after pulling up on something
Tries to push herself to a standing position
Has 6 teeth (and drools a bit but not as much as Ryan)
LOVES to blow raspberries
LOVES the wind blowing in her face (sticks her tongue out)
Holy cow! 6 teeth already!? Matthew doesn’t have any yet (nope, no paranoia here about my toothless 1 yr old!).
Glad you’re getting settled into a routine and that you don’t have to carry her 24/7 anymore!
