Helena - That is wonderful that Kiara is such a good eater. I'm going to start doing more of a meal schedule with Teagen if possible. How do you give her meat? I'm stuck at how to add that into Teagen's current diet. Since I have a dairy allergy and a slight reaction to eggs our pediatrician said to hold off on yogurt or other dairy products until after 12 months. Right now we just do tons of fruits and veggies.
Wamommy - Congrats to your girls! It must be exciting to watch them becoming more grown up, but sad at the same time.
I've bumped Teagen's head a couple of times. She'll pull a face and if I don't react then she'll just smile and move on. She's a tough little cookie. This morning she sat, unassisted for a whole 30 seconds. I was so proud! She has also started mimicking the sign language we have been doing with her. She hasn't quite done it in context, but we praise her every time she signs and explain what it means.
We have a convertable carseat in my parents car that can be rear facing up to 45lb and a Chico infant seat in our car that goes up to 30lb. In Oregon she has to be rearfacing until she is 1 and weighs 20lb.
Yesterday was our 6 month check up. She weighed 18lbs (90%) and was 28in (off the charts) and her head was in the 75%. She got her last set of shots until 12 months. The doctor's assistant was impressed as Teagen didn't cry at all during her shots. I even tried to offer my breast afterwards in case she needed some comfort, but she refused and just wanted to play She actually cries more when we put clothes on her...
Tomorrow we are headed down the coast into California back to where I was born in order to pick up a squeeze shoot. While on the way I'm planning to have us stop at one of the beautiful spots on the coast and let Teagen have her first splash in the Pacific. We are also going to be starting baby swim lessons in a week or so. They are in the mornings when DH doesn't have to work, twice a week. So I think I'll let him take her to one and I'll go to the other.
