This post is a little over due but what else is new :) It just hit me a couple of days ago that I never posted anything when she turned 5 months, so I took some pictures of Kate doing some of the things she loves right now. I think Halloween kept me busy and I let it slip by. Kate is doing great. She has problems with allergies sometimes or at least that's what I think it is. She doesn't let it slow her down much. Her nickname should be "Smiley" because that's what she loves to do. And I love seeing that smile so much. She wakes up smiling and I love to look in her crib first thing in the morning and see her big grin. I also love watching her face light up when she sees me. That's the best feeling in the world.
Our one bump in the road has been with formula. I have had to supplement some and in trying that the Dr. thinks she has a protein allergy to cow's milk. We are on our 3rd type of formula which is Alimentum. So far its going well. I don't have to give her formula very much so it takes a while to figure this out sometimes. Luckily too, I'm not away from her very much. She doesn't like cereal very much at all! I am trying to keep pushing it a little more each day because I know its all about her getting used to the spoon, the new texture of the cereal and the taste. You forget these little things from baby to baby. I just remember Cohen loving baby food and having a hard time getting her to ever eat table food. Here are a few more things about Kate right now :
- She has found her feet and LOVES playing with them every time I lay her down
- Still loves playing with her hands, and loves putting anything in her mouth
- She coos and squeals which is so precious
- Recently started playing in her walker and seems to like it pretty well
- Just slept in her big baby bed for the first time. This is because I have not wanted her out of my room and I'm still having a hard time with it.
- Is definitely a morning baby. She is happy all day most days but morning is her happiest time.
- Has starting fighting sleep more but gives up pretty easy when I hold and rock her. She even takes her paci sometimes.
- I think she is definitely teething but nothing has cut through yet.
- Wears a size 3-6 mos. or just 6 mos. in certain brands
