Gabrielle is 8 months!

Nov 24, 2012


About 20lbs.
Still size 3 diapers.
6-9-12 clothings
Likes to sit up in the bath now :)
Army crawls!...all over the place! Impossible to keep here in one place, she wants to be on the move.
We finally got rid of the little bassinet. She got much better at sitting up and didn't want her falling out of it. So, hubby brought in the pack and play instead. She has sooooo much more room.
Still bread fed!

Gabrielle is 7 months!

I need to weigh her ?lbs!
Size 3 diapers.
Size 6-9-12 clothing! Some 18 month shorts fit her too lol; size 6 is getting very small.
Still breast fed!

Still in the bassinet in our room, but, she is quickly out growing it. It is time to make the switch :( time for her to sleep in her big girl crib. I don't want her to leave our room though!
She can roll both ways :) She mastered sitting up by herself! When she falls back, if she is on a slightly elevated surface, she can use her tummy muscles to pull herself back to a sitting position.
Had Jasmine rice for the first time tonight. Loves it. :) She pats her belly/chest like a gorilla lol She's such a happy baby and always in a good mood.
Looking forward to her first Halloween, she's a monkey!

Between 5-6 months, she has tried a wide variety of foods. She had and loves, sweet potato, peas, carrots (sometimes), and mango. She doesn't really like avocado much :( Sometimes I sneak in avocado, I dunk some in peas, and she eats it ;)
She is traditional weaning and Baby Led weaning sometimes.  We give her 3 solid meals a day, tried her on a sippy cup. She doesn't know for sure what to do with it yet, but she will learn. She tried baby apple juice, and loves Gerber Puffs!
She also said "dada" :)
Her last doctors appointment, she was 90th percentile for her weight and 40th percentile for her height lol.



Super late uploading this here, she will be 7 months next week!

Has been having baby rice for the last week :) She loves it! We give her some at dinner time when we eat. This coming week I'm going to gradually increase the thickness. It has been very runny. She also had a taste of banana for the first time, not a big reaction from that.
Still sleeps in her bassinet in our room.
Rolled ONCE! from her tummy to her back. Gets close to rolling from her back to her tummy but keeps getting stuck on her arm. She'll get it :)
Loves blowing raspberries.
Still loves bath time and her reflection.
Giggles giggles giggles <3
Is currently teething :( Poor baby G. Runny eyes, runny nose, sneeze, dry cough, fever, the runs. The whole 9 yards.
She sleeps pretty well at night. She sometimes will sleep through the night. Other times she will sleep for 5-6-7hrs and wake for food then go back to sleep. She is usually asleep between 9-10pm and up around 3-4am to eat, and back to sleep until 7-730am.
She is drinking 22-26oz of breast milk in 9hrs! She's a hungry baby. I don't know how many ounces she drinks in all. I nurse her through the night, before work, and after work.
