Weight: I'll have to update this later. She is so squirmy I'm having a hard time getting a weight and the one I did get didn't seem accurate.
Diet: Nurses every 3-5 hours during the day. Eats nearly anything! She usually has a snack in the morning, fruit or leftover veggies from supper one night. Then when we eat supper she eats again. Sometimes she eats what we're eating or she will eat fruit, veggies, or cheerios. I have started buying those squeeze packets of applesauce or other fruit purees, they are great for when were out and about! She loves them, we also do cheerios or baby mum mums rice cakes sometimes. I honestly think if I let her she would eat more table food and only nurse at night and morning, but I'll hold off on that for another couple months :)
Sleep: Still going to bed between 8-9 puts herself to sleep so easily now! I don't know why I didn't start this sooner. I feed her and lay her in bed and without a peep she goes right to sleep. Usually wakes up once, around 4-6am then goes back to sleep till 7:30ish. Still takes 2 naps but I think she's trying to transition to one nap because lately her morning nap is only about 30 minutes and her afternoon nap is between 2.5-3 hours.
Mood: great when she is fed and rested! This month we had a week or two of teething at the same time as a developmental "leap" those weeks were rough. She was pretty fussy and clingy for awhile. But her top 2 teeth popped through(that makes 4 teeth total) and she is back to her normal happy self.
Activities: Has started roaming the house more lately, I started closing the bathroom doors and for the most part I let her roam and just check on her often. Last week she played with the stuffed animals and a few other thibgs in her room for almost an hour! She still loves when we get on the floor and play with her. She is "cruising" everywhere and will walk if we hold her hands or with her walker but has never taken more than a step without holding onto something. She has started standing on her own for long periods of time. I know she will be walking before long! It's fun to see her grow up but I don't want my baby to walk! She loves playing with all her toys, our shoes, water bottles etc. She especially loves emptying her toy basket then climbing in, so much so that we may need a new toy basket soon(but hey for a $5 basket it turned out to be a pretty good toy!) she picks up everything she finds and sticks it in her mouth, I am constantly vacuuming and still have to really watch her while she's playing and pull things out of her mouth from time to time.
Its hard to see but she was trying to grab the light, so funny!
Clothes: Still wearing 9 month clothes, size 3 diapers and medium setting Bum Genius cloth diapers at home. Probably will move up to 12 month clothes soon. I have some 12 month clothes and have already started buying her some 12 month clothes. I am excited to shop for 12 month clothes because there is so much more variety of styles in 12 month and up than there is in the baby sizes! Also, really want to buy her some little moccasins but trying to hold off till she can walk. Already planning her birthday outfit and party. Where has the time gone??
