Next week Abby will be 8 months old and we will move to 3 meals per day per our pediatrician. Abby is ready! She loves the food we give her and is having a harder time in between bottles. So, today, we gave her a banana in her netting at "lunchtime". She did a great job with it, eating most of a banana. She also had fun making a mess with it. I found banana in all of her 3000 parts!
Yesterday was a busy day and she didn't nap well. I kept having to wake her up to get where we needed to be on time. So, today we kept her up after church with food and then put her down for a nap. She kept showing off her sitting up skills when we would lay her down. We eventually left the room and this is what we found.She literally fell over sleepy. Her left foot is under her body and was purple from lack of circulation. I repositioned her and she didn't even wake up. She slept for over 3 hours!
After she woke up we lowered her bed and flipped her mattress. The mattress we bought is softer on the Stage 2 side for babies over 20 pounds. The stage 1 side is a little firmer to aid in SIDS prevention. We are past that stage and were able to give her a softer bed. We also lowered her mattress one notch so that when she sits up she isn't so close to the top of the railing. It makes me more comfortable.

Your little girl is beautiful! Thanks for stopping by my blog and sending me such sweet comments. Have a Happy Week!
She is so precious. Gus was just like this 5 minutes ago and now he is going to kindergarten. I do not know how this happened. You are so much better at holding on to the moments that I have ever been. Keep holding on for dear life because you will be buying a backpack in 5 minutes. . .
Isn't it so funny how they can sit up on their own, but don't know how to lie back down?

She's growing up so fast!!
