27 weeks!

MONTH: 7

WEEK: 27

WEIGHT: 16lbs 11.5oz

LENGTH: 27 inches

HEAD: 17 1/2 inches

MILESTONES: Avery is now half a year old. I cannot believe how fast the time went by. Also, I would officially consider her a supported sitter. She is trying to so hard to do it herself, but she is just not quite there yet.

OBLIGATORY ADORABLE PICTURE: This was taken on Friday at 27 weeks 2 days.

EATING: We have tried sweet potatoes last night. She was not a fan of straight sweet potatoes, but if I mashed them up and cut them with half oatmeal it seemed to mellow out the flavor and she enjoyed it. (Pictures to follow!) I, however, do not care for sweet potato poops!

SLEEPING: Avery is still sticking to her earlier bedtime of 7-7:15pm. One night last week she even went to bed at 6:30 which made mama very sad because that meant I only got 45 minutes with her after getting off work. :-(

VISITS/OUTINGS: Last week we went to the zoo! It was packed and Avery didn't really understand, but she seemed to like to see all the big animals.

FAVORITE ACTIVITIES: Playing with he feet and putting anything and everything in her mouth are still -- by far -- her favorite activities.

MOMMY FEELS: better about working. I have realized that by my working full time still we will be able to do more fun stuff as a family.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FORWARD TO: The long weekend in May when we go to Solvang, CA and the cruise we are taking in September!
