SIX MONTHS WITH EVERLY
Friday, 10 March 2017
Saturday March 11 marks Everly's half birthday! Every day I am so grateful for this little human, I don't know what I did right in this world to have this smile greet me every day, but she is all ours forever.
She has changed so much in the last six months and I can't believe she is half a year old already! She has a laugh that is contagious but something has to be really funny in order for her to laugh. She smiles all the time and it warms my whole heart. My favourite is every time I go to her crib after her nap to greet her and she has such wide eyes and a gummy smile. She is so relaxed and laid back like her dad, she loves just people watching and looking around. She loves blowing bubbles, talking, and yelling. She is currently starting to teeth but no teeth have made an appearance just yet! She eats solids and loves her sweet potatoes and banana, her least favourite so far is butternut squash.
Her schedule is pretty much the same as the last time I posted about it, she naps twice a day and those naps range from 2-3 hours. She sleeps through the night and has since about 3 months, and she is still in size three diapers and 6-9 month clothing. Her eyes look hazel right now but they will most likely be brown like mine and Kyle's. She has started scooting backwards! So in the next coming months we should have a crawler!
Even though 6 months seems like a long time, it has gone by in the blink of an eye. As a family we have learnt so much about each other and I feel like a lot of me has changed since becoming a mom. I don't ever know what I did before her, and even though every day hasn't been easy it is always so rewarding seeing her thrive like she has. I look at pictures of when we were still in the hospital and it feels like a dream! As bittersweet as these next 6 months will be I am so excited to watch her learn and see the world through her eyes.
Her wellness appointment and six month shots are on Monday so once I get her stats I will update them here:
weight: 21 lbs
length: 27 inches
