Monthly Milestones - 7 mos

 

Gabby turns 7 months! 

In Gabby's 6th month she....

 Had her first Thanksgiving at Grandma and Grandpa Wilson's house. Here are most of the grandkids on the Mosher side of the family

She likes to have what her sister has! Check this out!

Started wearing her hair in pigtails! 

Went on her first Christmas tree hunt and was so good even thought it took us like 45 minutes in the freezing cold. She never made a sound!

 

 She started to crawl, but backwards.  One day at daycare they said she crawled underneath all the cribs and made her way down the room and when she got there she laid down to fall asleep!

She still loves her sister! Annie can get her really laughing and she just want to be near her. They are so precious together.

She started licking her lips to show us she was hungry! This video is too funny!

She continues to be joyful and happy unless she needs something and has such a calm personality. She loves clapping. She eats three meals a day with 3 6oz bottles and at all of her fruits and veggies and likes them all.

Monthly Milestones - 6 Mos

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!

Sunday Sermon

 

Some people had asked about hearing Josh's sermon from this past Sunday; I thought this was the best way to make it available.. enjoy!

The Family at Kapnick Apple Orchard Festival

She is still so happy! Her smile brightens everyone's day and she does it so easily! She has started to really giggle and it is very easy to get her laughing!  She now eats 8 oz every 4 hours and has cereal once or twice a day. She weighs 16 lbs and 5oz and is 25 1/2 inches long and continues to be in the 90th and 95th percentiles! She is still sleeping though the night which is a huge praise!

Here are some things she did in her 4th month...

1. She knows her name - I was calling her "sissy and she wasn't looking at me, so I called her Gabby and she immediately turned!
2. Started cereal
3. She found her toes and likes to touch and pull at them
4. She reaches and grabs for everything!
5. She can put her pacifier in and out of her mouth...except at night.
6. Went to her first Circus even though she won't remember it
7. She tires to pull her self up to a sitting position, but isn't successful
8. She coos and imitates sounds that we make to her

I just realized that I didn't take very many pictures this month! I need to do a better job of taking pics. The weeks just fly by for us!

Rolling A-Round

Gabby woke up this morning on her belly! Last month, one morning she woke up on her back! So I knew she could roll over, but after many, many, many attempts to catch it on video I finally caught it today! Enjoy! I am so proud of her and she is growing so fast!

Salon Sweety

This wasn't Annabelle's first haircut. My mom gave her first haircut last November. However it was her first haircut at a Salon and second ever cut. I told her I'd get mine cut too because you could tell she was nervous. Even though I was doing it with her she still cried. As they were washing her hair she calmed down and the rest of the time she did GREAT! She was smiling for the camera by the end!

Monthly Milestones - 4 months

Gabby turned 4 months old! She continues to be the happiest, most content baby! She ate 6 oz every 4 hours and continues to sleep through the night. She weighed 15lbs and 9 oz when we went to the doctors.

Here are some things she did in her 3rd Month....

• rolled over from her tummy to her back
• started trying to hold her bottle
• started to giggle, although hasn't done a full blown giggle
• complete control of her head and I can now hold her on my hip
• sit up in her bumbo without slouching over
• swats at toys
• loves jumping in her jumperoo
• first ER visit. I got shingles this month and we thought she had the chicken pox. She did not have the chicken pox thankfully!
• started daycare this month. She is always so happy when we pick her up. We are also so blessed because they are continuing to cloth diaper her and keep her on her schedule, which has made for a very smooth transition.
• went to her first wedding that her dad performed! Hence the pictures above.
