Um yeah, so I didn't really mean for so much time to pass. I was thinking about this blog yesterday & how it's been a while since I came here and wrote!

Lots has been going on since January.  Abby can sit up on her own now, pretty much unsupervised. She does fall sometimes, but not nearly as often as she once did.  She is not crawling yet, but she does the rocking back and forth thing. She's trying!  She enjoys if you put her into a stand and then let her hold onto the couch or ottoman. She laughs with delight but she does eventually fall over, lol.

Top teeth are working on coming through. I feel like it has been WEEKS now. Please for the love of God let them just come through already. Lots of night wakings this time. We did get the Hyland's teething tablets and they seem to be helping, so we use those when she wakes up at night.

She is starting to enjoy more solids, including cheerios! She's getting so big.  She likes the gerber baby puffs too.  She was not a huge fan of hummus, however.  I need to get her some cottage cheese and tofu that she can eat for a snack.

I gave her a bath in the baby tub without the newborn sling. *sniff* big girl!   She did well, as I figured she would. It was easier to wash her in the sling b/c she was in more of a reclining position but she was starting to get to the point where she wanted to sit up all the time anyway.  She still does not really enjoy bath time too much. I think she is cold!  

Her skin is still stupidly dry. We are working on that.  I use baby oil gel (generously) on her after the bath and then layer with lotion & she gets lotion each night and during the day.  Poor kid.

We got her some new toys recently....a ring stacker thing (where they take the rings on & off, some blocks with a shape sorter lid, an activity table, and some stacking cups. the stacking cups don't seem to interest her too much but I'm hoping she will like them more when she's a little older. So far she really likes the blocks! She enjoys taking them out of the box and then chewing on them.  haha

Though if we can be honest, she enjoys chewing on everything these days!
