Kate is 5 months old today. Praise the Lord for His steadfast faithfulness in helping us raise this baby. She is definitely a challenge! But her smiles and laughter make up for it :)
We are still having a hard time with the eating but it is getting better. I can't tell if the prescription for acid reflux is helping or not...I have such a hard time getting it in her.
Poor kid has had a runny nose for the entire 4th month of her life.
She has no schedule, which drives me crazy because it's against my entire personality (!!) but the Lord has humbled me in that regard. The only consistent thing that she does as far as the clock goes is go to bed around 7 pm. She wakes up around 7 am, but the night wakings are always different.
She naps decently (1.5-2 hours at a time), in fact better than Vivian did at this age. She can get to sleep well on her own and the only routine we have is to sing the Doxology before I put her in the crib.
Other things I love:
-She has found her feet and loves to play with them, especially when she eats.
-She can sit by herself for a few seconds before falling over. Vivian thinks it is hilarious when she falls over. She can sit for an extended time on our laps.
-She is getting better at keeping a pacifier.
-Her hair is getting longer in the back, but she still has the bald spot so it looks pretty funny back there. In some of these pictures it looks a little red!
