Julia 6 month appointment

Julia had her 6 month appointment a few days ago.  She is 71cm tall (97% for height) and 17.22lbs (62% for weight) . So she is staying on the same curve which is good my doc says :).   She now sits up on her own and probably her favourite position to be in.  She is not into rolling. Shes done its a few random times, but my doc says not to worry.  Some babies are just not that interested in it.  Of course worried mama over here is googling it, but it seems that is can be quite common.  My doc wants her eating more now, 3 meals a day and breastmilk 4 times a day, so we are working on that. ( of course she doesn't want to drink as much milk off of me so I don't like that) She is enjoys her food just has a smaller tummy then matteo ever did.  She will eat around 4 oz of food for breakfast, usually baby cereal with some fruit or yogurt. Lunch is the new one we are working on and I am going to try and do 4 oz of veg and fruit and Dinner she will eat a bit more btwn 4 to 6 oz of veg, cereal and fruit.  Her favourites are avocado, squash, sweet potato and most fruits.  She even likes yogurt! Sleeping has been pretty good. She goes to bed by 7pm and will usually have one wake up btwn 4 and 5am and will go back to sleep for an hour or 2.  Naps are different.  Some days she has really good naps and some are 20 to 30 min catnaps.  We are working on those.

Here are a few pics of our little princess sitting up and being extra cute :)

Julia is 6 months today!

Today Julia is 6 months. I cannot believe its been half a year. She has been growing so much these past few months. She eats 2 to 4 tbsp of baby cereal with fruit in the AM and for dinner she eats approx. 2 tbsps of veg, 2 tbsps of fruit and 2 tbsp of cereal.  I am now going to figure out how to add in lunch for her this month.  It just seems like there are not enough hours in the day. She is still not sleeping the night :( usually one wake up in the night anywhere btwn 1 and 4.  Its very random right now and then she will usually sleep until 6 or so. (going to sleep by 7pm!) so not so awful but really got to get her sleeping 10 hours atleast straight. She is sitting  up much better these days. has a few topples, ( I like to keep a pillow behind her).  She wants to grab ANYTHING in her sight, especially if its a cellphone or remote or something she really shouldnt be grabbing.

Here Are a few pics I took today of her and Matteo :) so hard to get a good pic.  Matteo doesn't stop moving and Julia always wants to be looking at Matteo. LOL!

Happy Valentine's Day!
