Weight/Length

We don't go back to the doctor for a couple more months, so I don't know her exact weight and height. I'm going to guess a little over 16 pounds and probably 26 inches. She's been gaining about a pound a month these last few. She is still petite, but a chunker for sure!

Sleep

Still in bed around 9:00. Normally up around midnight to nurse. Sometimes we make it until four or six, to be nursed again. And then back asleep until 8:00. She has been taking about an hour nap, 3 times a day.

Eating

Baby girl still loves to eat. She doesn't care if it's finger food or spoon fed. She has calmed down a bit with the nursing. We still give a bottle every once in a while. She likes it.

Diapers

We are finishing up the size 2 diapers. Since she can sit up really well, we have had more blow outs in the back.

Clothing

She is starting to wear more 6 month clothing. Mostly 3-6 month still. She hasn't really outgrown anything lately. So that's nice.

Mood

So last month she learned how to sit up (5.5 months) That really helped her mood. She was tired of laying down and wasn't getting anywhere on her stomach. This month her mood has improved greatly. She learned how to crawl!!! 6.9 months old and crawling all over the place. She is in to everything and loving it. She has such a temper though. When she is told "no" or is moved away from her goal, she will throw a tantrum. Screaming, crying, the works. She really enjoys yelling, and talking when others are trying to have a conversation.
