Aria is 7 months old!

Baby Stats!

Sleep: Aria has gone back to sleeping through the night 😊 other than the odd night (teething, colds etc)

Feed: every 2/3hours other than at night

Daily Routine: our routine depends on which day of the week it is. Dax is in preschool three mornings a week so those days we have to be out of the house early. We usually come home after so she can nap and I can get stuff done. 

She may sleep an hour or up to 3 hours if we have no where to be. Afternoon more playing (usually with her brother). Then another shorter nap in the afternoon. Dinner.. Bath, feed and bedtime around 7. 

Weight: 16lbs 6oz

Length: 26.5in & 17in head 

Diaper size: size 3 diapers. 

Clothing size: 6-12m gap/old navy or 9m Carters. 9 month sleepers. 

Hair Color: medium brown

Eye Color: very dark brown 

Baby favs: She likes her walker and bouncer and playing with toys. She reaches a lot more and can wiggle around a bit. No crawling yet though 😅 She is loving food! I haven't found much she hasn't liked. 

Baby not so favs: long car rides, sitting too long 

Challenges: 

- my back has been super bad and with teething it has been hard to hold her for too long 😢 

- her raw bum. A combo of new food and teething I think. She would go a few days without a BM and then lots and a raw bum 

Milestones/ Firsts:

- Teeth!! First tooth bottom oct 2 and second tooth oct 9th 

- lots more variety of food this month.. Salmon, turkey dinner and all the fixings, ham dinner, chilli, spaghetti.. She likes if all. 

Events in the past month:

We went and visited baby Pearl which was a fun little trip. Aria isn't a huge fan of sitting in the car long but we persevered. 

We started swimming lessons. Aria and daddy and Dax started his solo lessons. Aria seemed to like it, taking it all in. 

We had two thanksgiving dinners which we really enjoyed. Family time is the best. Aria loved both feasts of course. She didn't love the drive to Vic but with a few stops we made it through. Cousin Zoe just loves Aria and wants to hold her. Soo cute!

Arias first trip to the pumpkin patch. She really had fun. 

She really is a happy little girl and we just love her to pieces! 

Looking forward to: Halloween 

& Maui

I Baby stats

Sleep: Aria usually wakes up once at night. Mama is happy about that 😊

Feed: every 2/3hours other than at night

Daily Routine: when the boys were on the boat we started a strict routine of nap every 2 hours and haven't looked back. We aren't so strict now but I definitely fine the routine works for everyone :) so nap around 930 (lately this has been the long nap 2-3 hours sometimes. Then nap afternoon for an hour. And we try to squish in one short late nap. 

Weight: 16lbs 

Length: 26in and 16.75 head

Diaper size: size 3 diapers. 

Clothing size: 6-12m but we squished into 3-6m for the summer weather. Just about to switch out of 6m sleepers. 

Hair Color: medium brown

Eye Color: very dark brown 

Baby favs: she is mommys girl (is happy as long as I'm near or preferably holding her), playing with toys, seeing her brother (she giggles the most at him it's too cute), sitting or standing, she is loving food!

Baby not so favs: being away from mom, naps sometimes, car seat when we stop for too long, being stuck doing something for too long, when she can't reach her food 

Challenges: 

- juggling two kids

- trying to stick to arias sleep schedule now with preschool and errands 

Milestones/ Firsts:

- she sits all by herself now 

- she can roll both ways 

- first swim in the pool

- lots of food this month.. Pear, Apple, banana, mango, peach, toast, egg, chicken, beef, pancake, pizza crust, avocado (kind of meh on that) 

Events in the past month:

Lots of beach days or lake days (we get out in the sun whenever possible)

Baby stats

Sleep: she still hasn't gone back to sleeping through the night but usually only wakes up twice. Around 1230/1 and then around 5. We need to get into a better routine... I think that might help. 

Feed: every 2/3hours other than at night

Daily Routine: not a strict routine but usually up around 630/7am for a feed then we sleep until 830-9. Boob then nap around 10. With Neil at home we usually plan to do something after this nap. Her naps seem to get shorter as the day goes on.. Hopefully once this sleep regression passed that will change. Goes to bed around 830-9. 

Weight: 14lb 14oz 

Length: 25in and 16.75 head

Diaper size: size 3 diapers. These have helped with the blow outs. Although sometimes still sneaks out the side lol. 

Clothing size: 3-6m still but they are getting tighter and 6month sleepers. We should be good to go for 6-12m clothes when fall hits. 

Hair Color: medium brown but seems lighter in the sun 

Eye Color: very dark brown 

Baby favs: she is mommys girl (is happy as long as I'm near or preferably holding her), playing with toys, seeing her brother (she giggles the most at him it's too cute), sitting or standing, jumperoo, she is loving food!

Baby not so favs: being away from mom, naps, being stuck doing something for too long, when she can't reach her food 

Challenges: 

- still struggling with naps a bit. I'm finding it harder to have a strict routine with two kids 

- keeping her busy so she's happy. It'll be better when she can sit on her own I think 

Funniest moment: When she wants food in her mouth she makes sounds and then forcefully puts it in her mouth Hahha

Milestones/ Firsts:

- first food peaches (August 3), since then she's had banana, watermelon and apple as well 

- still working on sitting (she should have it completely by next month)

Events in the past month:

Lots of beach days or lake days (we get out in the sun whenever possible)

Walks 

Looking forward to:

- her sitting by herself but at the same time she is growing up way too fast. Time needs to slow down 😢

She is liking the swing now!

Loves her brother so much
