Dear Lily,
You’re already halfway through your first year. Unbelievable! These past six months have flown by, and it’s been incredible watching you change each day.
Milestones
- 4/20 – Rolled over! Your first roll from your back to your tummy… and I missed it! I had put you down on your back, then looked over to Duke and pet him for a moment. When I turned back to you, you were on your tummy. Good job, baby girl! Rolling from back to tummy was a little iffy at first, but you loved sleeping on your tummy, so you got a lot of practice when we’d set you down on your back for nigh-night.
- 4/26-4/27 – Slept through the night! This was your first time not waking in the middle of the night to eat. You slept from 8-5!
- 5/1 – Sat unassisted! You sat up unassisted for like 15 seconds!
- 5/9 – First food! You tried your first food (sweet potato) and loved it!
- 5/10 – Scooted! You sure are getting mobile!
