six months

 Maeve is 15 lbs and 5 oz. in the 35.5%. 26in in length and in the 55.75%. And head size went down to now the 89%. She is loving eating solid food so she is starting to build up some tummy and leg rolls that are too good! She is finally back to sleeping through the night and I couldn't be more proud of her! She will maybe wake up once for me to put her binky back in but she has gotten so good at putting herself back to sleep now. She takes 3 naps a day and is on a 2.5 hour schedule. She wakes up around 7:15am, we go on a run then two hours later will take a 1.5 hour-2 hour nap. She usually goes to bed between 7:30-8:15pm.  


Maeve at 6 Months:

-She hums and sings when she is breastfeeding or drinking a bottle. 

-She has to be playing with something when she is nursing or bottle feeding. Some examples: pulling my hair, scratching the pillow or chair where I am sitting, playing with a burpcloth, playing with my lips/face, playing with my clothes. 

-She does one loud, high-pitched scream when she's frustrated or annoyed and wants something to change.

-She likes playing sitting up more than laying down.

-She finally learned how to roll back to belly.

-Her favorite word is Zaxbys.

-Loves playing with Jack or gets excited when there is any young kid present.

-Can only go to sleep if she has a "lovey" to hold and tickle.

 -She was scared of the Christmas tree when we first brought it home.

-She cruises around the house in her walker and loves the independence it gives her. 

-She loves drinking from a cup but does it weird and likes to put the cup under tongue.

-She started saying the "ma" and "ba" noises.

-She can sit up on her own.







five months



Maeve at 5 Months:

-Absolutely loves food! Her favorites so far are any type of meat, sweet potatoes, applesauce (she can down a whole squeeze pack), oatmeal, and bananas.

-Loves being upside down and will do a backbend after nursing or in the middle of nursing to look around.

-Gets distracted nursing and wants to look at anyone who is talking and will wait until they make eye contact with her. So now I have to go to a quiet room by ourselves in order for her to eat.

-She spooks easily: hates the noise of the blender and the vacuum, cried when grandma gifted her a bumble ball, scared of Hazel the dog, scared of our Christmas tree at first. 

-She started bottle feeding at night because she’s not patient enough with breastfeeding and wants food right then.

-Started not sleeping through the night.

-Loves going on morning runs even when it's so cold. 

-Started sleeping in a Merlin's Magic Sleep Suit or as we call it-her “Super Suit” and she loves it.

-Enjoyed dressing up for her first Halloween as a Dalmatian. 

-Loves going to visit family.

-Likes running errands and is fascinated by all the people and things in stores. She’s growing up at a weird time and doesn’t really know that that many people exist haha

-Loves smiling 24/7 and knows and loves being in front of the camera. 

-Loves watching home videos of herself and will smile or talk back.
