It was a big month for our Lana Mae! We started her month with a week-long visit with friends from Colorado. During that time she had her first swim and really seemed to enjoy it. After this, we made a quick trip to Oklahoma to see our friends who live there. And most recently, we went to St. Louis on the bi-annual Wertenberger family vacation. She has been quite a little trooper in all of these ventures. In St. Louis in particular, she spent a lot of time in the ring sling and did remarkably well.
Lana continues to be a great baby. She sleeps through the night and takes one great/long nap in the afternoon. She cat-naps in the morning and in the early evening. She's getting so she doesn't need the evening nap as much but then she gets cranky/tired before her last feeding so she may be ready for the last feeding to be dropped- time will tell. She's starting to take after big sister and have a blow-out almost every day. She's in size 2 diapers and size 3-6m clothes. Unlike any of my other kids, Lana spits up pretty frequently and I'm always feeling caught off guard by it.
It feels like she's getting closer to rolling over. She really prefers to be in her swing if she's awake, so it's a little bit of a battle to get her to just lay on the floor and play. Plus, when she's on the floor there's usually someone in her face so I don't really blame her. In the last month, if she's not swaddled she is chewing on her fists/fingers. She does take a paci, but we'll see if that sticks around. She has really started to coo and smile- the kids are LOVING this. They usually get in her face and say "who's a cute little sister?" and she almost always gives them a big smile.
