Sleeping Miles still sleeps from 7:30-8:00 pm until around 7:15 am with usually a dream feed at 11 and then 1 wake up around 5-6 am. Sleeps well in a regular sleep sack. Loves to sleep on his tummy now!
Eating Miles has started becoming more interested in solid foods than bottles. This month he decreased his milk intake on days Mommy works from 12 oz to 7-8 oz many days. When Mommy is home, he nurses every 3-4 hours. He has started eating small bites of chicken and spaghetti He also is pretty happy to try most anything we are eating! He still loves Bamba!
Movement Miles is trying to move. He can't crawl yet but he is practicing small scoots and trying to figure how to pull up. He routinely rolls to his belly to sleep.
Milestones Miles loves to eat real food-and is drinking way less milk. He is enjoying learning to be a big boy!
Favorite toys/activities He continues to love to play in the bath. He had fun swimming in the pool in GR this month. He still really loves his learning walker and also has started to like to handle toys.
Dislikes He is pretty chill unless hungry or sleepy!
Words and sounds Starting to get more vocal- he loves to scream for fun at times.
What we love The way he loves his siblings.
What we don’t love Occasional fussiness, but this is getting much better!
What we’re looking forward to next month More movement and possibly some teeth? (maybe i'm not looking forward to this!)
