Sleeping: We are still mostly getting up once a night. We usually get one or two nights were she sleeps through the night sprinkled in each week. Always a nice treat for mom! Napping is continuing to go well most days, although as our days start to get more active we have been moving nap time around or napping on the go. Clara likes to nap in the carrier while hiking!
Eating: Is going well. We are working on getting into an eating routine with baby food and eating three times a day. We have tried some of the baby foods with meat in them and they are well received. Clara is also getting good at picking up and feeding herself the little baby puff things.
Firsts: We started swim lessons. The first lesson didn't go so well, and this past weekends lesson was cancelled. We did spend some time in the pool this weekend at Steele Hill with her cousins Grace and Parker and it went better. Hopefully next weekend swim lesson will go great! Clara hiked her first biggish mountain this month going up Rattlesnake in Rumney. I guess I should say rode her first mountain, as my friend Kim carried her up and I had her on the way back down. We are looking to purchase a hiking backpack to carry Clara in if anyone has any suggestions.
Weight: Clara had a doctors appointment this morning and is now 15 lbs and 3 ounces. She is doing really well. Her head measurements and length are now on the chart for a baby her age and weight is just a little bit under. The doctor said developmentally she is about 7.5 to 8 months, so we are definitely catching up!
Likes: Toys that have movable parts and play music, her dog Polar, anything she can put in her mouth, her daddy - he makes the craziest faces and really gets her giggling, bath time, seeing her cousins, chatting and screeching.
