I have to be honest. The last six months have been the most tiring months of my life because little lady hasn't figured out how to sleep through the night yet. But, I also must say that I am enjoying Addie even more than I enjoyed Tali or Owen as babies. I'm not sure if it's because I'm so aware that this time is going to fly by or because I've had so many extra hours with her at night or what. Whatever it is, can I just say that I am nuts about this girl?! Even though I'm tired, I love the time with her even in the wee hours of the morning. So that I don't forget...
Addie Beth at 6 Months
Weight: 15.9 pds (at 4 months she was in the 45the percentile & now she's over 80th percentile!)
Height: I think 26 inches but I can't remember
Clothing Size: 6-12 Months
Hair Color: Hmm...not sure but it's looking light brown & straight
Eyes: Blue (oh please, Lord, let them stay this gorgeous shade!)
Temperament: Generally very quiet, sweet, and happy...except when she's screaming (this girl knows how to generate some serious noise)
Naps: 3-4 usually lasting about an hour although she did a 3hr yesterday and a 2 hr today
Food:Just started sweet potatoes & nurses about 7-9 times each day/night
Night: Goes to bed at 7:30pm, eats again around 10pm, then wakes up 2+ times
Favorites: Hands down, she is crazy about Owen & Tali. She laughs at them & watches their every move. Loves being outside. Also, she's a mommy's girl right now & just wants me to hold her. She loves shaking her head/rubbing her head and making a big bald spot. :(
Now that Mother's Love herbs have boosted my supply, her weight is up and she seems happier. We're praying that her sleep takes a turn for the better soon and very soon. Even if it doesn't, I could not love her more!
Praise God for Baby Addie!!
