We are going to Grampa Brian and Grandma Suzanne's next week. While we are there we are getting family pictures. I hope Arya's teeth are in enough to see in the pictures. But it means LOTS of slobber. All the teething has been making for a fussy girl at bed time. We have been using baby tylenol and teething rings. The tylenol has not been a good experience so we bought baby advil and will be using that next. The discomfort is causing her to be a snuggle bunny-which I enjoy but wish I could make her feel better.
This week we have upped Arya to three bottles of formula a day. She has breatmilk with her breakfast and dinner but her three mid-day feedings are formula. Also, I am on my meds so the milk I pump has to be dumped. :( BUT, I am almost dried up- thankful I am not so umcomfortable anymore! My goal was to be done with the pump before going out of town next week. Soon I will be packing it away for good.
Back in August Arya said "Mama." Now she says it ALL the time! I'm not complaining but she is now saying it to everyone! She has called Daddy, herself and our friend Mindy all "Mama." And sometimes she just says it while babbling. I think it's because when she first started saying it she refused to say it when Daddy was around. He kept saying "Ma ma ma ma ma" to try an convince her and I think that's what caused the confusion.
Now that Arya can pull up so loves to stand on the love seat and look out the window. Don't worry, I always stay right there to make sure she doesn't tumble over/off.
Arya has starting eating Gerber puffs now. I am not sure what she thinks of them. She eats them willingly on her own but tends to scrunch up her nose and make a funny face. She also now will drink out of her sippy cup. That took a long time! I guess she wasn't ready until now. Here is her snacking in her Bumbo last night.
Love the pics! She's so dang cute. Lukas has the same sippy cup. :-)
