nora was 7 months dec 19th...

7 month post...better hurry...before she is 17!

she weighs 15 lbs 4 oz! up from her 6 month check up where she weighed 13 lbs 11 oz! so we will continue to add 2 spoons of powder formula to her breast milk bottles.
she is in 6 month cloths and size 2 diapers.
  she sucks on her left thumb and index finger (at the same time)
she has one tooth! the bottom middle left.
she has started to sit up unassisted for a few seconds before she teeters over!

she will actually laugh out loud when you play peek a boo with her!
she reaches for everything, and if she gets a hold of it, it goes straight to her mouth!
she LOVES her sisters!
she takes 2 naps a day...one around 10 am for about an hour, then around 2pm (along with the other 2 girls! i call that a mother SUCCESS! i get all three napping at once!) for about 3 hours.
she will sleep from 8pm-8am but still wakes 1-2 times to eat during the night around 1am ish and 5am ish...
she poops daily now (i think its the formula)
she drinks breast milk from a bottle (im still pumping every 4 hours, 15-20 minutes at a time) every 2-4 hours, 130 cc (120cc is 4 oz) at a time.
still a work in progress the eating purees thing...she is getting a little better but its still a huge chore, she will be doing ok...then it will come out her nose because she sneezes, then she screams and doesnt want anything to do with "food" anymore.. she still tongue thrusts too...uggg...its stressful!

some of the things shes done the past month include:
we made her santa cookie plate. her footprint made into a penguin
she got her first tooth on thanksgiving day! 6 months, 1 week and 1 day.
we went to see the wild lights display at the zoo! she LOVED the lights!
on  dec 3 we went for her 3 month follow up with her plastic surgeon and he was super happy with the way she was healing!
the top picture is us driving through christmas lights at our local park...nora was sleeping in her car seat
she is a drooling fool! teething and open palate will do that to you!
she has super chubby thighs and cheeks!
she is a super happy bald baby!
that we are so lucky to have
