Crawling

When does it officially count as crawling? It's been a few weeks that Baby's been able to get around with ease, but it's still an army crawl. She's able to go from lying down to sitting up, and gets to her desired destinations without any complaint. Her knees get red if she's wearing shorts, but she doesn't seem to mind. I could watch her play all day. I love her. :) 

4th tooth, 5th cold, and projectile vomit

So, eden now has 4 teeth, but the third and fourth teeth are actually not the typical top front teeth; they're the ones right on either side of them. So, she's prob going to look like a vampire for just a little while. 

She's had a cold this week (interestingly, but awesomely, without a fever). I think that maybe what caused the projectile vomit last night after dinner. I think sometimes her congestion and drainage get so bad she barfs.... Although, she did also have an explosive diaper today. Who knows! Either way, she has still remained rather delightful. :)

3rd tooth

Her top right tooth has popped through, just as predicted! I'm sure the top left will follow suit before too long. She's still pretty awesome! 

In related awesome news, eden fell asleep in the car on the way home, and I transferred her to her crib, and she kept on sleeping!! Miracle baby!! I can't get enough of being with her. She's truly a delight. 

When it rains

Eden has still been the most delightful little baby I've ever had the pleasure of meeting. Can you believe she turned 7 months yesterday? So fast. 

This weekend seemed to be the biggest one of her life, in terms of big reasons to be fussier: 

* She's been rocking on all fours. I sometimes found her that way in the crib,  crying! I'm sure she'll be crawling within the next couple of weeks. Yikes! 

* She is learning how to wave! 

* She is learning how to say, "Dada!"

* She has another cold. 4th one? 

* She is picking up the pace with eating, but her pooping has slowed dramatically. Which. You know how that must feel. 

* She now has both her front bottom teeth, but I think she could be starting on her top front teeth now. 

So, I think the hardest times for her have been early morning and pre-dinner. Which are usually kind of tough anyway. But today she slept until 6:15, so that was amazing! :) but she woke up grumpy, and I know she has the ability to wake up happy, so I know at least one of the things above must be tough on her. Sweet girl. :) 

kissing sounds

last weekend, little edy started making kissing sounds whenever she saw me. she must think that's my name. :) i love that little girl something fierce! she was just delightful all day long. she cried a bit tonight, but i think it's because she's getting ready to crawl. she's on all fours, rocking. :)

she's also gotten her second tooth in the last few weeks, and she may be working on more.

her favorite foods so far are chicken and turkey. she's also had peas, green beans, peaches, rice, oatmeal, pears, prunes, squash, sweet potatoes, and i think that's it. she hadn't pooped in the last couple of days, so we gave her a glycerin suppository, and it worked like a charm. just thought i'd [over] share. :)

Kids together

We put the kids in the same room last night to sleep. Eden had been waking up crying for the past week or so, but we were chatting with Moses about Eden sleeping in his room in the crib someday, and he got really excited about the idea. So, I figured now or never! Both have been quiet as a mouse all night! It's been a while since that's happened, and it's even 5:55 and meither one has made a sound. Yay!!

6 month stats

She's so tall! But I guess she's not that chubby?? And, of course, I'm neurotic and wondering if our baby is eating enough...
