UPDATES!!!!!

Keelin is up to 20lbs, she seems to gain 1 lb per month.

Last month she got a third tooth on the bottom, still none on the top but we think we feel them coming in

She has the crawling thing down and loves to be chased.

She is also a pro at pulling herself to a standing, but does not too much cruising yet and seems irritated when I try and get her to hold onto my hands and walk.

Her sleeping at night sucks! She either wakes up a bunch of times or wakes up once but is up for 1 1/3 - 3 hours.

Her naps are pretty great though 1 1/2 – 2 1/2 hours twice a day, and no napping less will not make her sleep better at night

I've been working a lot, so she is nursing a lot less, but it's ok (I do pump for her), I'm pretty sure we'll make it to a year and then she'll wean pretty easily which is a good thing.

She is becoming more agreeable to the whole spoon feeding thing, but still prefers to feed herself, and she loves her sippy cup

She waves, claps, gives five, and rolled her arms twice in one day but I can't get her to do it again. She is also trying to click her tong which is hilarious; she makes the sound but not so much by actually clicking her tong

We are working on sign language which will hopefully put an end to or at least lessen the amount of screaming she is doing. She doesn't throw fits, but lets out high pitched screams to get our attention or let us know she wants something, it is not ok.

She shakes her head “no” and nod’s “yes” often at appropriate things which is surprising.

She babbles tons and we think she is close identifying mama and dada with us but I can’t say for sure it has happened yet.

She is not a big fan of being confined in things like high chairs and car seats, but really who like to be strapped down.

She loves to be outside and loves music. Singing ol mc Donald or the wheels on the bus gets her to relax when she is having a hard time in the car.

She has become very cautious of strangers and does not willing let anyone she does not see everyday pick her up, unless they give her time to warm up and even than there are no guarantees.
