Every month, on the eve of her birth day, I always tell Taylor; "do you remember what we were doing 5 months ago?" And he always says something along the lines of, waiting for sister, etc...While I'm more real about it..."I was FREAKING out and crying and panicking about wanting an unmedicated birth and being induced since she stopped growing!" And then he calls me dramatic, and we move on with our life and look at this wonderful little girl that we would do anything for.
She's 5 months and is still exclusively on mamas milk. She's had a spoonful of oatmeal mixed with mamas milk and then a spoonful of frozen yogurt; but that's it. We typically do a baby led weaning approach when it comes to food and try to avoid purees for the most part, but we may do them sporadically. BUT...babies don't need 'real food' yet. Food before 1 is just for fun, and we plan to slowly start introducing some fruits and veggies and I know she is SUPER EXCITED! We both get really excited to start food, but we don't want to rush anything.
She's wearing 3-6 month clothes, rocking her size 2 diapers, and is growing like a weed. Everyday I swear she gets a new fat roll and they are the CUTEST!
She's loving tummy time, can roll from tummy to back and back to tummy. She really enjoys kisses from Henry, snuggles from Shepherd, and slobber kisses from Norman. She's (for the most part) a very easy going baby. She goes with the flow. She goes to the gym with me, to work, to the store, to shower, EVERYTHING, but I really don't mind it.
Her hair is marked by 2 distinct cowlicks; thank you Taylor Skelton. Her hair sticks up. No matter what. Ain't no helping it, and we are okay with it. There's no telling right now, but we *think* her hair may end up being strawberry blonde and she may have dark eyes. The boys eyes were blue at birth and have gotten more blue. This girl. Her eyes get darker daily, but she's BEAUTIFUL.
And we adore her.
She squeals. She talks. She's perfect.
Some nights she sleeps. Other nights she's up every 3-4 hours. But she rarely fusses. So we are okay with it.
Sidda Lee is PERFECTION.
