Ooh, I'm on it this month!
I just posted some more photos, for your viewing pleasure!
Milestones abound recently...baby girl's not crawling yet, but she's getting up on her hands and knees all the time and sort of bouncing. I anticipate she'll figure it out quite soon.
Also no teeth yet, but she did have some teething pain a couple of nights ago - baby Orajel worked like a charm. Then of course Brandon had to put some on his tongue and see what it was like - he was talking funny for a little while (the numbing works).
She's also stable enough to sit in a high chair, so we finally had to break down and buy one - it's being shipped now. She's getting some solid food every day, much to her chagrin...I can get her to eat the rice cereal without much problem, but she hasn't been too interested in the other foods I've tried. I also unfortunately made WAY too much of the pureed peas and sweet potato a couple of days ago - good thing I can freeze it! We're not discouraged, though - I have no doubt she'll be getting used to food very soon!
This will also be the first month when we don't have a well-baby checkup, which is a change. She has her flu shots awaiting her in January, though, and I can say from personal experience that they hurt, so she won't be happy about that. But at least she gets a respite for now!
I can hardly believe it's already almost the end of October - we're going to a wedding on Saturday, so not much for the Halloween festivities - though I think we're going to get baby girl a costume anyway, since she can get away with it. I wanted to make something, but of course didn't get my act together, so I'll probably just make a pass by Babys R Us.
That's all for now...
