Sleep has been very rough this month. Typically would go down at 7 p.m. but would wake up several times during the night. We were going nuts. Harp would sometimes drink up to 8 ounces in the middle of the night.
On top of not sleeping well, we had to prop her bed up for 2 weeks due to a bad cold and croup. This made sleeping even worse.
Mommy's Favorite Moment:
On October 31st we celebrated Harper's first Halloween. She dressed up as the cutest little monkey which is so fitting since she would swing tree to tree if she could. We started a little tradition of having dinner with my parents and visiting friends.
Daddy's Favorite Moment:
The best moments from this month was Harper's first Halloween. She was so happy to put on her costume for the first time. Her monkey costume was adorable and Jess "dolled" it up with makeup and a pink bow. Also...she's on the move. She's everywhere! She so adventurous, has no fear, and loves climbing on things especially the steps.
Health:
Oh my goodness! Our poor little baby had such a rough month. Starting out with a bad cold, mix in a little teething, and croup. It was rough on all of us. Harp didn't sleep much and was on a lot of meds. Steroids for the croup and ibuprofen for fever and pain.
Eating:
Bottles- 8 ounces with 4 scoops of rice. Usually she gets an 8oz. bottle at 9:00, 1:30, and 7:00. Then, a 4-6oz. bottle when she wake up and when we get home from work (before dinner). If she wakes in the middle of the night, she'll usually take a 4 ounce bottle. - This pretty much stayed the same this month but when she was waking up she would sometime take up to 8 ounce (2 bottles) at night.
Solid- Harp loves food!! Finger foods all the way. She loves...perogies, broccoli, green beans, peas, waffles, and mashed potatoes.
