UPDATE!
Okay, so Mary turned 6 months on Monday! And as you can see by previous posts, the three of us had a great little Birthday Party.
Thursday Mary had her 6 month appointment, where she was weighed at 16 lbs, 2.5 oz, measured at 26 1/4 inches. So our little one is a growing, she is at the 50-75% for both weight and height. Dr. Keeley confirmed the results of the ultrasound saying everything was fine! We will go back for another ultrasound in a few years but for now everything is great! She also had two immunization shots which she dealt with pretty well.
Thursday afternoon, the three of us went to the movies! This weeks movie was "Premonition". It was Ryan's first time at the Stars and Strollers.... and well lets just say it was an experience for us all.... As soon as the movie started, a relatively quiet theater erupted in tears. Yup a handfull of babies decided to start crying, including Mary... which for someone who has been to this event a few times knows this is normal and okay (this is the whole idea of Stars and Strollers.. a place where you can go and watch movies with your baby and not worry if they start crying). For Ryan this was a bit overwhelming, he kept wanting to take Mary out of the theater so she would not desturb the others.... Poor Mary was in a lot of pain from her teeth! About 20 minutes before the end of the movie Ryan finally took Mary and left the theater.... neither of us really caught much of the movie as we were both thinking of Mary. I managed to catch the end but still need to see it again so that I can catch what happened throughout the middle of it. Ryan says he will try it again but when Mary is finished teething!
Saturday was a special occasion in our house! Mary had her first food! Ryan got to feed her some rice cereal and she loved it! I will let Ryan post about it this evening as we have some video of it!
Sunday we also noticed that part of her left eye tooth is just about the break through! We are hoping that all three break through so that Mary is in less pain.
With all of the wonderful things that are happening... there is one downfall! Mary has learned to roll over, sit on her own, pull herself up, lurch forward from a sitting position and scooch around. These are great milestones that show our little one is growing and prospering! But it also means that she is no longer safe sleeping in her bassinet in our room! So tonight Mary sleeps in her own room in her crib. I think that I am having the harder time in all of this... Mary will be in a comfy, larger bed, but I will no longer have her in the same room as me. It is time.... Hmmph.
Ryan will post tonight with the eating videos!
Happy Birthday to Mary's Abuelo! We love you tons and hope you have a great day!
Love from all of us!
Katie, Ryan and Mary
