A ½ year old and the time is passing by as quickly. We are both trying to enjoy her as much as we can so because we know that this time is so precious and we’re never going to get back the silly little moments or the sweet grins. Since Regan has come into our life things have changed, but it’s changed so much for the good with bathtime and sweet giggles and precious smiles, I wouldn’t want it any other way.
Regan now weighs in around 16 lbs. She’s officially in 3-6 month clothes and some 6-9 month, depending on the brand. She wears shoes most of the time when she is with us and she wears a size 2, but size 3 is coming pretty fast. She is about 26 inches long, above average for her age. When we went to the doctor she was so good. She played with all of her toys forever while we were waiting on the doctor to come in…silly doctors!
We have officially started her on solid food, besides the Oatmeal cereal that she was getting…which she loves by the way! I was so excited to see what kind of new foods she would eat. I knew I wanted to make her food even though I had no clue how I was going to make it. Mom gave us her Bullet and we bought some ice cube trays to freeze it and some little Tupperware bowls to bring it to school everyday. It actually wasn’t that hard at all…much cheaper too! We started off with Green Beans, and boy my bubble was popped quickly…she hated it. It was a horrible experience, she cried the entire time. We tried again and she did a little better, but she was definitely not a fan. Next we moved onto Zucchini and this turned her around…oh man, she loves it and even smacks her lips…too funny. Limas, depends on the nights, sweet peas (she’s only had these out of the store jars) she ate in NC and she liked them, and asparagus…which she loved! Gotta admit…the kid likes the “weird” veggies…good for us!!! We’re onto a different color tonight and Carrots, we shall see how that goes. It has definitely been fun feeding her and it’s neat to see her funny faces when she’s not a fan and when she likes something. I cannot wait to feed her fruit. And she will definitely be ready for some Thanksgiving food and Christmas Dinner
This past month she has become her own person. It is so fun to watch her grow as a person and learn new things everyday. She’s starting to crawl and it’s so funny. She was army crawling for a while, but she is definitely now officially crawling…now, it still takes her a while and she gets tired, but it’s happening…especially if she’s after Rebound…so cute! I am amazed at how quickly she has caught on. Of course I have no concept as to how long it should take, but I think it’s amazing!!! Amanda says I shouldn’t have wished it so soon, but it will be neat to tell her…”come on” and hopefully she will follow…ha, we shall see how that all works out. I’m excited for her, but I sure Rebound won’t be too excited when she will be chasing after him ;)
We went to Raleigh last weekend and Regan got to meet so many new people and she got to see where she’s going to live starting next year with cooler weather. We had an awesome weekend with awesome people.
She is the most wonderful thing!!! So proud to be her Mama :)
