On Monday, which was also Mike's birthday (more on that later), Jillian hit the 7 month mark! I can't believe how quickly she is growing. Mike and I have said it a lot lately but this year has been the fastest of our lives! Is it really almost Halloween again?! What??
Jillian is such a pleasant little person to have in our family. I can't get over how easy she has been and I pray that it doesn't mean she won't be easy later! Ha! Here are a few things about Jillian Faye at 7 months!
- she thinks Drew is the funniest person ever, which is totally cute!
- she loves to snuggle
- still no teeth
- as of Sunday, she is officially out of our room and in her own big crib in the guest room, which has resulted in me sleeping in the guest bed more than Mike and I would like. We're working on it.
- she is eating solids and so far has tried oatmeal, brown rice, apples, pears, pineapples, squash, sweet potatoes, broccoli, carrots and spinach.
- she is still nursing and refuses a bottle even if I put juice in it...wish me luck!
- she doesn't sit up or crawl yet. In fact, she doesn't really roll over much. She doesn't like being on her tummy so she scoots around on her back (think upside-down inchworm) to get to things she wants to reach. I'm trying not to compare her to other kids her age but its hard!
- she LOVES to take baths and no matter how hungry, tired, etc she is, if you stick her in the tub, she gets so excited!
- she fake coughs to get our attention...hilarious!
- she gets really loud and screechy when the big kids are at school, like she can finally get a word in!
- she is 50% in weight and height, our most average kid yet...Drew being below average and Susanna begin above.
- she still prefers me to any other person, which is pretty great ;) haha, at least, I think so!
She has many nicknames...Jilly, Jills, Jilly-belle (Susanna), Jilly-undies (Susanna..?), Jilly-azies (Susanna...again...?), Jilly-bean, Jill-Jill, Jilly-girl, Jill-Bill, Doodle (me), Petunia (me)...they are crazy, I don't even know how most came to be but she's got a ton and we love her more than ever!
