5 Months!

22 weeks tomorrow.

So what's new?

Sami's rolling more. We're still going from back to tummy, and then freaking out once we realize we're on our tummy and can't go anywhere, but her time on her stomach is getting longer and longer, and others who have been watching her say they've seen her roll back from her tummy to her back... sadly I think I'm the only one who hasn't seen this yet. Pics or it didn't happen, right?

She absolutely LOVES her Jumperoo... and it helps wear her out for bed, to boot! We still need to put a box underneath it so that her feet can reach to push off of something, but you work with what you got!

Teething hasn't been too bad lately. Sure, she's drooling all over the place and putting everything in her mouth, but she hasn't been too inconsolable as of late, which means less Oragel to be used, and that actually makes me feel a little bit better. We can still see the little white teeth under the gums in the front, so they're working they're way up slowly but surely...

And she's found her feet!!!

But above everything else, I think she's going through another growth spurt. Before I would be able to feed her one last time at 7pm, she'd go to bed, and be pretty much set until 5am... which was great because that meant I could pump before bed. Now, not so much, as she's waking up for food around midnight, and if I try pumping before bed I won't have enough offer her when she's hungry. It's quite the dilemma.

And I think we're putting a pause on solids for the time being. We've been trying, but it's been more of a battle than an enjoyable experience, and she's still young enough where she doesn't need to be out through all that. So we'll wait it out a week, try the rice cereal again, and see what happens. Who knows, she just might not want the rice cereal, and we can go to oatmeal and veggies once she hits 6 months.

*shrug* But we'll pull through it. We always do.
