No solids for Avah yet, she's tasted avocado and banana off of my finger, but that's it. She's really good at sitting up but nowhere close to crawling. She loves to stand though, has been for a few months. She can hold her weight but we need to be balancing her. And I will also be making my own foods. I am probably going to start with Baby-led weaning.

Oh man will I be glad when those fricken teeth pop through already! Emery used to be an angel when it came to sleep. Sleeping from 8 pm to 9 am on average only waking once or twice but since she started teething a couple months ago she started waking up more often and for the past two nights I maybe got 2 or 3 hours of sleep total because she was up every 5 minutes using me as a human pacifier, not moody or anything just restless. After the first wake I never did go back to sleep since she was up so often and I don't think she slept either. I'm surprised she's not more tired. Last night I even put her to bed on a full tummy and gave her some infants motrin but it didn't help at all.

Man I sure hope its the teething thats causing it..hopefully tonight will be better.

Hi everyone! Hope you're all having a good easter weekend. We went to my FIL's church egg hunt and pancake breakfast at the park today. Spencer had fun, Emery fell asleep lol. They'll get their baskets tomorrow

Major news though! Emery is finally crawling! She's been trying so hard for quite some time and finally got it down. I still can't believe it! She's only 5 1/2 months but she's up on all 4's crawling! She still tries to get on her toes rather than her knees once in a while though, trying to do a bear crawl lol.

How is everyone else doing?

Clever Emery We are sitting and rolling. Shuffling forward by pulling knees underneath and pushing forward but not crawling. These teeth have a lot to answer to tonight

Happy belated anniversary Mrs. B! Avah is JUST learning to sit. No crawling in sight, but I am sort of thankful for that. We will be starting solids in 2 weeks though. Crazy!

End of this month hun, but thanks

Elyssa absolutely loves her food! Hope Avah loves it just as much when you starts her

Wow! Didn't realise this thread was still going. And it's kinda long. LOL.

Its amazing how fast these kiddos grow up. 8 days until Emery hits the 6 month mark. I want to take her 6 month pictures myself but no idea where.. I did my son's at a park but I kind of want to do hers somewhere else.

We're still working on those two first teeth. Why do my kids have to be such slow teethers.. both her and my son started early but it takes forever for the tooth to actually come in. 3 month long process for my son, he's ALWAYS teething it seems. Thankfully it doesn't bother him too much and he's only got 4 more teeth to get. I can feel Emery's gums swelling and getting a little bump where the teeth should be popping through at some point..My nephew who is a week and a half younger than her has 2 already and seems to be working on the next. I feel so bad for my brother and his girlfriend. That kid literally never stops crying until he goes to sleep and he's a cat napper.. I think I would go nuts! plus they have 2 toddlers at home too.

We're hoping to take Emery to meet her great grandparents (hubbys mom's parents) in August. Apparently my hubby gets 1 week off between this semester and the next but we'd rather go in August than later this month. This is assuming he gets time off after this next semester too and he can get the time off work.. I'm ready for a vacation though!

I read that over and over and kept reading March, not April...I don't know whats wrong with my brain!! Happy Anniversary at the end of the month!

{LOL} After reading about your little ones getting teeth already and sitting...and crawling I feel like we're behind!! Chris has no teeth coming in...not sitting(he is doing crunches though, and not crawling either...he does roll where he wants to go...
But my "little" guy weighed 20lb 2oz on april 1st...as we went in because he got pink eye...he's in 12 month clothes...
