She's getting much better head control now and can somewhat sit on my hip when I hold her and sit up supported. She lasted about 1 second when I tried to take a picture of her sitting up by herself. It's still early though :).
Baby girl is wearing 3-6 month clothes, and size 2 diapers (size 3 at night). She usually goes to bed between 8-9 p.m., and wakes up between 7:30-8:30 a.m. Another good sleeper - praise the Lord for that! She nurses 5-6 times a day and takes a few naps (nothing set in stone yet).
She started grasping toys (of her own accord) the day she turned 4 months. So if you put something in her lap, she'll pick it up now and look at it or chew on it.
Still a little short for the jumperoo. I'm sure I could adjust the height settings, but I ended up just putting a couple cushions under it for now.
She does better in this bouncer, hanging from the doorway from our kitchen to the laundry room. Right now she'll sit in it happily for maybe 20 minutes, but hopefully that will get longer the more she figures out how to bounce, and with improved body control.
Not to be left out, this little guy is quickly approaching TWO! He got a real haircut a couple weeks ago, which makes him look even more little boy-ish. He's wearing 2T pants and 3T tops, and size 7.5-8 shoes.
These are his new Christmas friends. He lined them up on the steps & sat down beside them all by himself :).
All decked out for Christmas!
The faithful fake tree. I still like the way it looks & the money it saves on not buying a tree every year!
I finally sewed letters on rest of our stockings, so we're all represented now! (Paisley's is behind mine because we only have 4 hooks.)
Christmas is coming soon! Caden has picked up the words "Christmas," "Jesus," and "birthday" recently. Trying to get him to connect that we celebrate Jesus' birthday on Christmas :). He's also started asking to read his Bible all the time - it is the sweetest thing ever. He knows who David & Goliath, Daniel (and the lions), Jonah (and the whale), Jesus & Zacchaeus are when we get to those pages. I love seeing him learn and am amazed whenever he whips out something I had no idea he knew!
Awe!! I love your family update! Lindley is getting so big, and Caden really does look like a little boy! We miss seeing y'all! Let's get together soon! :)
