Nora is all over the place and started full blown crawling right after she turned 7 months. She pulls up and stands up and pulls things over on top of her quite often. She is a tough cookie though! She scares me to death she's so fearless.
She has been "teething" since she was around 3 or 4 months old, but she has yet to produce any teeth.
She is having soy formula bottles and seems to really like it. She quit nursing on her own about 2 weeks ago. She's a finicky eater though and you never know if she is going to finish her bottle or not. We really try to get her to so it won't interrupt her sleeping, which it has done in the past but if she doesn't want to eat, she's not going to eat. She loves oatmeal, and fruits. She likes orange vegetables better than the green ones, but isn't crazy about the veggies yet.
Her sleeping is better, not feeding her in the night anymore because she's eating all she needs during the day now- Whoo Hoo!
She is the happiest baby on the block and will flash a big ole grin to just about anyone if they smile at her. She will also go to anyone eagerly (if she isn't too tired) and is super friendly.
She has started with Ms. Sheila on Tuesday/Thursdays who is the nicest lady who keeps a few small children at her house. It is working out well, and she seems to really enjoy it and Ms. Sheila is wonderful with her. I'm so thankful!!
DFB update: after all he will only be 3 and 3 months once...
He's Mr. Independent. He is really getting quite difficult to dress because he has a big opinion. Not about fashion, he's a comfort guy and really only wants to wear cotton, with no zippers, or buttons. He also has his seasons confused, or just doesn't care, because he only wants to wear shorts and short sleeves. He also wears his batman costume once a day. To play, to the grocery store, to bed. It's all cotton so it's his #1 choice.
He loves to eat PB&Js, pizza, tortillas, etc he's a bread and cheese eater. He loves yogurt, and fruit too. Meat is more challenging. He likes all beans and corn, but they seem to be the only veggies he will eat. He also loves edamame.
His sleeping is much better too. He likes to leave his lamp on most nights and he wants to make sure that we will come back to check on him but his night time fears seem MUCH better.
He's very curious and super chatty. (he comes by that naturally) He wants to know, "How do you make this? What's this? Why? Why? Why? He's pretty rational and you can usually explain things to him and he gets it.
He loves his books, and shows and movies. He likes to "play rough", play with super heroes, pretend, build forts and he's really gotten into his friends lately, and has wants to have one to over or asks to go to their houses. We are explaining about waiting on invitations so the other day he asked me to send an "in-be-tation" to Avery to come over to our house to play.
He says really funny stuff, a lot: He told Nora to quit baby talking the other day. He likes his privacy in the bathroom and prefers it to be dark...? Gibberish words totally crack him up :)
I'm wanting to write all of this down so I can remember... I find myself asking was DF doing this at this at Nora's age and I can't remember!! GASP! Thank goodness for blogs and his blog book so I can look it all up again :)
