One month away from the big first birthday. Time has gone by so quickly and I am soaking it all in. Maylee had a rough month of sickness, poor appetite, and sleeplessness. Luckily she is back to her happy self and is finally eating more and sleeping more! On top of being sick we had teething to blame for our not so happy little girl!
As for this past month - it as been a busy one for Miss Maylee....
Tooth #1 on bottom right 03/07, Tooth #2 and 3 top left and left lateral incisor (yes, that is its name) 03/09, tooth #4 top right.....still waiting for bottom left to pop through. I have to laugh when I see her teeth coming in....they sort of remind me of Nanny McPhee right now....but cuter of course!
She is a crawling machine and pulls to a stand all over the place. She does well getting down if what she is holding onto isn't too high. She gets stuck on our higher couch and calls for help all the time.
Carter has become quite attached to his sister with lots of hugs, kisses, toy sharing. head rubbing, and finger feeding. It is so cute to see him adore her.
Maylee still loves Andrew and prefers to pulls on his hair and climb up onto him. He is good with it unless she gets a nice fistful of skin!
Maylee has been sick for about six weeks, but is finally on the mends. She has a lingering cough and a bit of a runny nose, but I blame that one on teething (six teeth will do that to you!) The Tylenol bottle has been kept close at hand.
She is voicing her opinion much more with some adorable little sounds. I think she would talk more, but her brothers are so busy and loud I think she realizes the volume level is quite high enough and she can't compete!
Eating is coming along. She is still picky, but is eating a bit more. She is still nursing and can drink from any kind of sippy cup...if I hold it of course.
She is finally growing out of her 6 month jammies in length!
Swimming twice in one month! We swam with my parents at their motel when they visited. The kids had a blast! Then Shell and I took the kids to an indoor pool here...and that was an adventure. Three out of the four kids had a close call. Shell dunked Hailee while trying to get Carter and then Drew got stuck as well. Huge pool all to ourselves with lots of pool toys...but we had to use their swim vests instead of our own which caused problems. It sure was fun to get in the water though and the babies loved it!
Weight: 14 lbs (at sick doc appt a week before her 11 month mark)
Height: 27 inches
