My title "Changes" of course referring to Chloe... what else right? I mean she is a pretty big part of my world. Anyway, She has been chaning so fast lately. She is now clapping, waving, giving high fives, and of course saying Mama. The best of the three is clapping... she just loves to clap and she does it at the cutest times. She was getting good at waving, but seems to be back stepping a little bit on that one. She also is becoming mobile. OH MY! She rolls all over the place and uses her arms to spin her while her tummy is the pivot point. It is so cute. She just rolls around and has to figure out what everything is about. I can see now that crawling isn't too far away. Just one day out of the blue she starting rolling all over the room. Now i set her down and look back in a couple minutes and shes in a whole new spot. She has been such a happy girl and it just melts me that she is content just laying on the floor giggling away. Pretty independent, but likes company as well. She has recently also went from 3 naps a day to 2. She takes one in the morning usually around 9ish and then one in the afternoon around 2-3. The morning nap is about an 1-1.5hrs. The afternoon nap is usually 2 hours. She used to take three 1 hour naps or longer sometimes.
Her eating habits have changed a little bit also. She takes 4 6oz bottles a day, I still have to help her hold them, but sometimes I can let go of them for a little bit. She eats cereal in the mornings, a meat meal in the afternoon, and some veggies or fruit in the evenings. Usually I will also give her some puffs or yougart melts for her to feed herself at least 1time a day after one of her meals. She is just learning to finger feed herself though. We have tried in the past and she would freak out and chock and throw up, but now she gets the food down when she makes it into her mouth lol. She is just growing up... so crazy to think she will be 8 months old next week.
Well, besides all of that, Denise, Dominic, and Papa are currently on thier way here to visit. I am making some lasagna for dinner when they get here. I look forward to having them here to visit us and see Chloe and how much she is learning and changing.
Oh, with Chloes new found mobility, I decided to try re arranging out living room... which I did. I wanted to try and make sure things would be as safe as possible for her, wires out of the way, nothing she can break where she can get to it, etc... Also she has lots of room to move around now. So it worked out well.
Alright, I am sure I will write more about our visit later...
