Random mini update thing

Lilith loves watermelon. HATES banana.
She enjoys poking anything and everything with a single finger, and tests out her pincher grip whenever possible.
She is getting better at belly crawling and turning and even getting on all fours and lifting up and half-crawling type things every day. She is going to be full out crawling in no time, and then the running.... She already pulls herself up on things and pushes into standing when you simply hold her hands. She is trying SO hard to get up and go go go go.... <3
Still loves the boobie, and no teeth yet (YAY! Take your time bitey painful teeth!!!)
I love her. She is the best most amazing baby ever with her "mamammamamamama" and "dadadadaddaadeedadadadeedadada" noises and babbling on occasion.

Almost 7 months...


Heeeey~ I am still alive. Just been busy as anything.

Lilith is doing GREAT. Sitting up on her own, trying to get more and more mobile (She is kinda mobile, not hands and knees crawling but still finds her way around army style and butt bouncing and stuff), demanding to be stood up more and more often to look around and test her legs and feet and toes....

Latest awesomeness: She started solid food at 6 months and 15 days. We do Baby Led Weaning AKA Baby Led Solids. she has had some avocado and a piece of apple so far. Didn't actually eat much, if any, but she tested it and with the avocado had fun making a mess. Tomorrow we are gonna try a banana. :)

She still loves boobies more than anything though. For the past month however she has decided seeing the world is SUPER COOL. Therefore she nurses every 2-3 hrs (on occasion once an hour) during the day, but nurses almost constantly at night (we cosleep/bedshare). She is too busy to be bothered to nurse more often during the day (and when she does she is squirmy and easily distracted) and so it seems she just makes up for it at night... LOL It's fine by me, I don't mind it as I still manage to sleep even with her latched onto me, it's just funny how she does her baby thing (It is actually common and normal for babies to do and called reverse cycling).

P.S.
My formerly super social butterfly of a baby has started up with slight stranger anxiety. This makes me a bit sadface. It will be interesting to see how this changes as she grows...
