Sage turns six months old next week, so we thought we'd get her started eating some rice cereal to practice eating from a spoon. While she is not taking a bottle, she did take to a sippy cup last week, so that is a relief for everyone, since Mama cannot be there for her 24/7!
We're hoping that with a fuller belly, she will sleep better at night because she still wakes up a few times every night. Sure enough, the night that she ate the rice cereal, she nursed at 7pm to sleep, again at 11 pm (right before I went to bed), then woke up just once more at 3 am to nurse, and slept until 7:30 a.m.! Perhaps after she gets larger portions, she will sleep through the night!
Our little "Chirish" girl's smiling eyes light up our lives! At 6 months, she weighs 17 lb., 2 oz. (70th%ile), and is 26.5 in. tall (75th %ile). She gives big smiles to everyone, even if they aren't familiar to her, but especially adores her big brother.
