6 Months & 2 teeth later...

Well here we are 6 months later and I seriously can't believe how fast its flown by. Well actually it will be 6 months on Wednesday but close enough.
Amie went to Plunket the other day and she now weighs 7.33Kgs and is 69cm long. Those of you who read the last blog will notice the she has lost some weight. We put it down to all the jumping in the jolly jumper and all the effort she puts into sitting up. Amie still hates laying down regardless if its on her back or belly. She still has no real desire to roll over although Becky tells me she has done it once or twice trying to reach for toys. The little monkey won't do it for her Dad though.

Amie's Uncle Timmy has come back from Camp America which has Becky ecstatic and Amie well...

Nah, actually Amie is more like this...

Much better huh?

The big thing at the moment is that Amie managed to pop through 2 teeth in the last 2 weeks. I managed to get a shot of them this morning.

These teeth have unfortunately for Becky added a new challenge when it comes to feeding time. I occasionally hear the odd scream from Rebecca usually followed by Amie laughing her head off. I think she might have to be careful or she may find herself with a bottle.
With the teething process I think we have been really lucky. Amie has been a little bit grumpy but really has managed to stay really happy and still sleep well.


Amie's Great Nana brought her a walker a few weeks back which she loves. She attempts to walk around the place pushing all the buttons which make all sorts of noises.

Amie has also hit the Clingy stage. All she wants to do is hang on to her mum, Dad's no longer good enough. So now poor Becky gets even less time to her self as Amie is sleeping less and wanting to be held. Another stage we have noticed is that she has started looking and tracking. i.e if Macy walks into the room Amie will get all excited and then follow the dog around and then try to find her again if she leaves the room. Or if I'm holding her & Becky gets up and goes to the kitchen Amie will follow her the whole way and then get upset when she can no longer see her. (Lucky I'm not taking too much personally)

Becky has now increased the amount of solids feeds that Amie gets a day as she LOVES food. I suppose she has no change with the DNA she has inherited from both sides. Becky has been busy making up all sorts of amazing food, sticking it all in the blender and then freezing it all. If ever the bird flu actually hits Amie is sorted for a year or so.
I'm not sure if I have mentioned this yet but...Ice cream. She has definitely developed a love for Ice Cream. Her Grandma and Poppa love to give it to her and man you should see the tanty that follows if everyone is eating ice cream and none is coming her way.

Can you see the bliss?

As you can see the fingers are still the favorite although at the moment anything that can will go in there.
