Lily had her 6 month checkup last Thursday, and it went very well. She is weighing in at 15.1 lbs which puts her around 30th percentile I believe. She is 26 1/4" long which puts her in the 70th percentile for length. She is running pretty average from what Dr. Miles said. She is crawling, standing and anticipating that first step. I can see her little brain considering it. I just hope I have a camera close by for it. I missed the triplets and Thomas. She is eating well, and Dr. Miles was very pleased with her progress. Her next appointment will be at 9 months.
I think that everyone is finally getting well. That is except for me. I have a fever at the moment and feel pretty much like crap, but I will survive. Oh Dang It! Now I have that song in my head. It is on the Chicken Little CD and I have been listening to it for the last 2 weeks. Now I need to think of another song or that one will be in my head all day. I hate that when it happens:(
Lily started biting yesterday, and not only legs and arms but Ninnies. Yes, it hurts like a dickens! She started this out of the blue yesterday afternoon after her nap. I have been trying to offer her the breast more to cut down on her night feeds, and when I offered before she was ready yesterday she took a great big clamp of a bite on my ninney. I screamed and she just laughed like it was the funniest thing she had ever done ever. She bit again and I screamed again and she laughed again. I tried all the tricks, and even called Rae. When we went to bed last night she nursed with only a nibble and went right to sleep. Unfortunately she nursed all night, and between her the rest of the kids and the dog next door I am exhausted. I have let her decide when she wants to nurse instead of trying to get her to nurse, and that has slowed the biting down. If she starts to clamp down I just took her off and walked away. I think it is working. Keep your fingers crossed! LOL!
Well, The only other thing to report is Busta is heading to Nicaragua as I am typing this. His uncle wanted him to visit for the week. He will be home next Sunday.
