Milestones: This past month you have gone through tons of changes. On December 16th we started you on pureed food, you had sweet potatoes and loved them. So far you have eaten sweet potatoes, peas, pears, bananas, apples, and squash. We have found that there are some foods you like better homemade and others you like better store bought. Overall you have been a good eater, eating everything we have given to you. You rolled over from back to stomach for the first time on December 17th, since then you have been rolling to get around. Around January 9th you started getting your knees under your bottom, that then turned into rocking back and forth on your hands and knees. Shortly there after you started "army crawling" everywhere, we no longer can leave you unattended. Your favorite items to get are Mommy and Daddys shoes, your diapers and the cats. You have now switched from sleeping on your side to sleeping on your stomach, you seem to sleep a little better since that switch. You are now throwing fits when Mommy has to change your diaper in the middle of the night.
Best Moment: Seeing all the changes you have gone through this past month, you are growing so fast.
Worst Moment: When you fell out of your swing, Mommy felt so bad. Also on January 29th you didn't fall asleep until 1am. You had a fever during the day and was a little cranky during the day. When bed time came around you didn't want to sleep and would wake crying every 20 minutes. Finally around 1 am Mommy decided to have you sleep on her in the recliner. We slept that way for a couple hours, then Mommy put you back into your crib, you slept there for a couple hours then it was back to the recliner for the rest of the night.
Hair: Your hair is getting a little longer and thicker in places, you still have a bald patch on the back of your head.
Eye Color: Your eye color looks like brownish/greenish color.
Who you look like: 100% Daddy, with Mommys eye color.
Clothes: You wear 6-9, 9, and some 12 month clothes. The 6-9 month clothes are getting a little short but still fit.
Sleeping Through the Night: Nope. You wake up usually two to three times during the night. Usually you wake around 12:00 ish am, 4:00 ish am, 6:00 ish am, and finally waking up for the day around 8:00 - 9:00am.
Schedule: You go to bed any where from 7:30 pm to 8:30pm. You wake up around 8:00 am to 9:00 am, just depends on the day and what time you went to bed the night before. You are finally back to napping in your crib, Mommy gets you to take two naps a day.
Eating: During the day you like to eat every couple of hours. We now feed you oatmeal in the morning and pureed food at night which you really enjoy.
Teeth: Not yet, thank goodness.
Diapers: Size 3 of Earth's Best diaper.
