You can see her two teeth here. The top two have just been hanging out at the gum line for months now. One of these days, they are going to pop through, I hope.
She immediately tries to eat the sticker each time I put it on her. She loves the crinkly sound, I think, but it kind of reminds me of putting something on a cat. They become obsessed with getting it off. :)
I had fun reviewing where Owen was at this age. He weighed more than 4 lbs heavier, and was already crawling and pulling up. I know you are not supposed to compare kids, but I can't help it! Hadley has been getting up on all fours and rocking, but she still prefers to roll and wriggle to get somewhere. Notice how she slowly, but surely, gets this newspaper.
She also has a "creepy crawl" in which she will propel herself with her feet, on her back, with her head upside down looking at you. It looks a little like something that belongs in one of those creepy-kid movies, but the doctor assured me that it was no cause for concern. :) Probably that she just gets frustrated with the lack of progress on her tummy and discovered this motion one day. Still have to get this on video.
We've also been trying out the big high chair with some different finger foods, like banana and puffs. She seems to be over pureed foods, so it's mostly a yogurt and breastmilk diet for her currently, even if I mix the pureed stuff in with yogurt! She did seem to enjoy the peanut butter yesterday, and I'm sure she will love the ice cream. I'm hoping that all of these efforts will lead to her eating more and gaining some weight, but she sure is stubborn!
Owen likes to "help" place her puffs in her mouth and spoon-feed her yogurt. Of course, his payment is for her to "share" her puffs with him!
Love the pic of him and her together!
