Teething

So it seems like Sophie has been teething for a year even though she’s not even been here that long. It is finally paying off, though. She has a teeny tooth coming out in the bottom front. She’s been gnawing on anything she can get in her mouth and she tries to get everything into her mouth. I can’t wait to see how cute she will be with her little tooth. 

We had been trying to give her oatmeal and then last night realized (thanks Mom) that we aren’t supposed to be giving her REAL oatmeal, just baby food oatmeal. Also a big thanks to Sophie’s Dr. for not explaining that to us. We’re first time parents over here. So Justin is at Target right now buying her some actual baby food oatmeal so we can start that again. Also he bought her some organic avocados so she can start on some of that as well. I feel so bad for not having been more diligent so far with getting her eating real food because every time I’m eating she stares at me and opens her mouth and makes chewing motions. She really wants to be a big girl. I’m not sure I’m ready for her to be a big girl but it’s not up to me, it’s up to her. 

New pictures from today. Sophie is almost five months. She loves to yell. That’s what she’s doing in the open mouth picture, which I love. She’s so much fun!

Sophie making as much noise as she possibly can this morning to help me not sleep.

Sophie’s First Bites

As we speak I am feeding Sophie her first bites of oatmeal (per her Dr.). She thinks it’s very funny that I’m doing this because she gets to spit it all out. She has not swallowed one bite it has ALL come out. She’s also looking at me like why are you doing this to me? She’s so confused but having a good time. I hope she starts to like it because she won’t take the bottle and if she refuses to eat anything this is going to be a long year.

Sophie being silly

Sophie was really making me laugh today. Justin handed her a dandelion stalk and she was putting the leaves in her mouth and laughing. She’s so silly.
