Lila lila lila! You are so much fun! And you get smarter and more beautiful every single day it blows my mind!
You're tall and skinny but you're also strong and have amazing hand and eye coordination. You can understand the word, "up" and you kind of stretch your arms out to be picked up whenever we say it. You hardly ever cry... you mostly just whimper when you are unhappy, don't feel good, or wake up in the middle of the night.
You still wake up often during the night, but you are a master at being consistent with your naps during the day. So that is nice! You go about two hours of wake time between naps. During that time we feed you, play with you, and practice tummy time! We have turned "Daniel Tiger" on the TV a couple times and you have showed a little interest in it, but still not much interest in the TV quite yet.
You happened to say "hi dada" just before Father's Day! Whether it was sincere or not, you said it and we got it on video!! It was so awesome. You've said it a couple times since then, but you're still pretty picky on when you say words.... You don't seem to babble unless something is in your mouth like your fingers or fist, or a toy! You're a funny one that's for sure!
We finally switched you over to size 2 diapers although size 1 still fit you. 2's are a bit big but that's only because you're a bit thin! Some people say you're so cute and chubby-- which you kind of are and it's adorable! but for your height I think you're a bit skinny :) It's okay though because you are so healthy and happy!
You show SO much interest in eating real food. We have let you taste apples, celery, and carrots. You have also tasted a pickle and a lemon! But showed no real reaction to either of them... so we will try that again sometime in the future ;) You take formula when mama is at work but otherwise you are a champion at nursing!
Your beautiful big blue eyes are soooo bright. But they water every time we go outside. I think your tear ducts are a little underdeveloped. Hoping you'll grow out of it with time!
We don't go outside very often here in St. George because it has been soooo extremely hot. We keep our blinds shut! So that could also be why your cute eyes water when we go outside.
I finally got around to painting your toenails for the first time this month too! I chose turquoise blue. They sure looked cute on you and you enjoyed looking at them!
You're getting better and stronger at tummy time and rolling over from your tummy to your back--both right and left ways. It's good! But you still refuse to roll from your back to your tummy haha.. You have also learned how to scoot using your legs to push yourself on your back.
You're so curious and happy and we love you so much! Keep being happy, we love you beyond measure!
Love,
Kate
