Today Gabby turns 6 months!
It is hard to believe that Gabby is 6 months old already! She has grown so much this month and brings such joy to our household! I continue to be amazed at the connection I see growing between Annie and Gabby and pray that it will continue as they grow older.
She now eats 3 meals a day. Her meals consist of rice cereal, fruits and veggies. She back down to 6 oz bottles of milk and only gets 3 a day. She continues to sleep through the night although every now and then will wake up at around 4 am talking to herself. As soon as I put her in bed with me she falls back asleep.
Here are some things she did in her 5th month:
1. Started sitting up, although for very short periods of time until today!
2. Started Veggies and Fruits (sweet peas, green beens, squash, bananna, sweet potatoes, applesauces -in that order).
3. She likes to reach out for us to pick her up and likes to touch our faces.
4. She likes to wide open mouth kiss us!
5. She is very responsive to us, people and objects. She babbles, coos and screams as demonstrated in the video above to show excitement and happiness!
6. She can grab objects and bring them to her mouth. Her motions are much more purposeful this month.
7. She will follow you around the room with her eyes and if Josh or I leave the room she stretches out her neck to try and see us! It is the funniest thing!
8. She does not like to be left alone anymore! She will scream or shout if I put her in her bouncer and she can't see me!
9. She likes to try and pull the spoon up to her mouth, especially when Daddy is feeding her.
10. At dinner when we are eating she wants to eat. She reaches and grabs for every thing! She likes to sit and be apart of the dinner table.
11. Easily entertained, especially by her sister!
