Today is Annabelle's 5 month "birthday". She seems to be changing every single day.
A little over a week ago, she was diagnosed with a milk protein allergy/intolerance (not lactose intolerance). So, she is now on some EXPENSIVE formula, but it seems to be making things a little better. She's now drinking about 5 ounces 6 times per day...no solids yet...we have to give her little tummy a rest for a while and time to heal. Thanks to Dad for his research in developing this formula. Little did he know his granddaughter would be using it many years later! :)
Her favorite games is peek-a-boo.
She loves music. Some of her favorites are "Bibidi Bobidi Boo" and a knee-bouncing song we learned at story time.
She still puts everything she can get her hands on into her mouth and drools like a maniac. So far, no sign of teeth.
A few weeks ago, I posted a picture of her first attempts at sitting. Now, she gets some sitting time every day and she's getting better and better. She does the best when she has something in front of her to play with.
Yesterday, I posted a video of her trying to crawl. At the end of the video, you can see how she gets her butt waaaay up in the air, but her face on the ground. She's been doing this a LOT. Later last night, she actually got up onto all fours...except all four in her case was her hands and toes. She promptly did a belly flop. She's still hard at work on her attempts to crawl and is definitely able to move around a bit.
Just as I am writing this, she got up on her knees and hands, but she got off balance and fell on her side...yikes!
She loves her daddy. Every day when he comes home, she gets a huge grin on her face! He likes to play silly tricks with her. This is what I found when I asked him to pick out a bow to match her outfit yesterday.
Time to practice some more!
