Special
Talents:
Crawling and Cruising. You are pretty brave with cruising
around, and love to use your belly to prop yourself up standing at a
table/ottoman/etc.
Crying:
You do
this new “whine/annoyed” cry thing when you want something. More like an “aaaahhhhhhh”
in an annoyed tone than a real cry – and you sure show off your lungs when
doing this trick.
Sleeping:
At night: Sleeping all night again
consistently, 7-6. Is this semi-permanent now? Whew.
For naps: Still been down to two – usually lunchtime
(11-12:30) and a catnap in the afternoon (3-3:45ish). I’m thinking you’re going
to self switch down to one soon….we shall see. You are happy as a lark most of the
time in between – so I’m kind of letting you drive this one buddy bear.
Loves:
DADA!
You are a Daddy’s boy right now- which your Dad is just soaking up. You get so
excited when he comes in the room and boy do you love to play with him. Food! At least your pouches. You have become
fairly independent and prefer not to be spoon fed. So we let you do most of the
control on your pouches and you get really excited when mealtime comes.
You
love grown up items that aren’t your toys – like leaves, paper, and assorted
trash. We joke that we can just take away all your toys and leave out a few
pieces of trash to keep you entertained for hours.
You are
finally officially really attached to your silky, and really don’t like to
sleep without it.
Not so much love:
Still
out on strangers for the most part. The pouty lip continues and strangers think
you are a serious baby. Ha! Not so much. You still are pretty out on proteins –
we are having to supplement with iron drops b/c your levels were borderline at
your 9month checkup. Eat some meat, buddy – you’re making your paleo parents
sad! You are also out on being sick. You got sick for the first time in your
little life this month – with a sinus infection. We had to do antibiotics and
although you were your normal self, you had some ugly diapers for awhile, which
led to your first bout of diaper rash. It was your first antibiotics – and somehow
in the midst of all this – your first puking. It was sad and pitiful and on
Christmas Eve! Luckily you woke up the next morning back in action – it was not
fun that night, though, to say the least.
Schedule:
Third month in a row we
are pretty consistent. You are at 4 nursing sessions a day about 3.5-4 hrs
apart. This usually is 6:30, 10, 1:30, 5:30.
We are still 100% breastfeeding for milk - but also have 3
"meals" a day. You have solid food at 8:30, 2:30, and 5:45 –
now about 3 oz each feeding. You are taking usually 2 naps a day as mentioned
in the sleep section, and you sleep at night from 7-6.
