I'm so behind...I have a list of things that I want to document in my head, but that list has yet to make it into the blog and just keeps growing.
Nathan - 8.5 Months
- Waves hi/bye
- Has really learned how to walk (with assistance). At the start of our Cultus Lake trip (#3), we would practically have to drag him along. Now, he drags us along. He even lifts up his feet to step up stairs.
- Has gone from having 4 naps a day prior to our camping trip, to 2 naps a day since we've been home. He did so well with staying awake during naps that I figured now it was time to cut out a nap (or two!) so that the naps remaining are longer. Today he went down at 9:30am (and I had to wake him up at 10:30am so we could leave) and 2:00pm (and is still sleeping at 4:15pm). I also switched from giving him a 6 oz bottle after he wakes up, to a 7 oz bottle before he goes down. Dropping naps is a great way to also drop a feeding :)
- Learned how to pick up pieces of food between his thumb and pointer. So handy!
Me - The last time I pumped was the evening of June 12. I had been going every two days, but by June 14 I wasn't even feeling like I needed to pump, and same thing each day after. I didn't even feel engorged at all this time...my milk just dried up.
After struggling with infertility for three years, we were blessed with the birth of Matthew and Kayla in March 2011 (by in vitro) , Nathan in October 2013 (by frozen embryo transfer), and Olivia in August 2015 (naturally!). We are loving every moment (well, almost!) of our lives as parents.
