    How old is your LO?  6 months

    How much BM/F per bottle? or per day? She is EBF and eats about 6-8 times per day
    How much baby food per sitting? How many times each day? So far she eats about a tablespoon, and only once per day
    How many diapers per day? Probably around 10
    What time is bedtime? Wake time? Goes to bed at 8, wakes up between 6:30 and 8
    Is LO rolling over? Front to back and/or Back to front? Yup! She started doing front to back at 1 month, and back to front about 1.5 months ago
    Is LO sitting, unassisted? How long? She can sit for a very long time unassisted. I think the longest we have done playing with her sitting up has been at least 30-45 min.
    Can LO get up on all fours? How long? She can, but not for very long.  Only a couple seconds
    Is LO crawling? Not yet.  But I think we are very close.
    Can LO pull themselves up? Not by herself yet. She will pull herself to standing holding onto my hands.
    Is LO standing, unassisted by mom/dad (couches count)? How long? Yup!  She started while we were taking her 5 month pictures (holding onto her crib). We have been practicing this every day and she can stand for a solid couple of minutes.

    MORE FUN!!!
    Favorite food? Most disliked food? I would have to say banana was her favorite.  She hasnt disliked anything yet. 
    How many times has LO's hair been cut? I cut a single hair once lol.  It was long enough to get into her eyes.
    Your LO's fave toy? She loves sophie, her o ball, and a little rabbit at the moment.
    LO's fave activity? I would have to say bath time lol. She LOVES the water.  She also likes jumping in her jumperoo and sitting and standing and checking everything out.
    A new fave gadget/toy/clothing/etc that you recommend to other Moms? I wouldnt say it is new, but I always recommend getting a swing.  That thing was a life saver! I know DH likes sleepers that zip up.  He has big hands and said it is easier for him to do up her sleepers if they zip.
    Does LO prefer Mom or Dad? I wouldnt say she prefers one of us over the other.  She is turning into a daddy's girl.  If she hears him she HAS to see where he is and what he is doing ( becoming a problem when feeding her).

    Anything to add? It is just so much fun to watch our little ones grow :)  I love being a mommy so much <3

    How old is your LO?  She is 6 months old today!

    How much BM/F per bottle? I'm not really sure. She typically nurses every 2-4 hrs during the day and sometimes has 1 night feeding (more for comfort though!) She doesn't get bottles so much anymore because I'm home for the summer but when she does she gets between 4-5 ounces. 

    How much baby food per sitting? How many times each day? We just started really getting into solids. Amounts vary...the other day she ate almost a whole (small) peach though. She loved it. She usually gets one solid a day but I try to do 2 times a day now.

    How many diapers per day? A lot! She's always had a lot of wet and dirties. I would say at least 10 a day.

    What time is bedtime? Wake time? Bedtime is usually between 8-9. Last night it was 11:30, sigh. Wake time varies. Sometimes she gets between 5-6 to eat and then goes down for another couple hours. She typically wakes between 7:30-9 am though.

    Is LO rolling over? Front to back and/or Back to front? Yes, both front to back and back to front. She is now doing back to front easier and gets frustrated in the middle of the night when she can't flip back over. It's slowly getting better though.

    Is LO sitting, unassisted? How long? Yes, for fairly long periods of time now. She wears cloth diapers though and in the fluffier ones she loses her balance a bit but typically she can sit as long as she likes. However she tends to get distracted/lean to reach stuff and topple! lol.

    Can LO get up on all fours? How long? Yes, just started this a few days ago. Not very long at all though.

    Is LO crawling? No, I'm not ready for that yet--my house needs babyproofing!

    Can LO pull themselves up? Not yet.

    Is LO standing, unassisted by mom/dad (couches count)? How long? No, but when held by us she can stand a long time.

    MORE FUN!!!
    Favorite food? Most disliked food? She likes peaches. She hasn't really disliked anything, though not as into avacado or sweet potato.

    How many times has LO's hair been cut? Never, it's just now coming back in!

    Your LO's fave toy? Sophie

    LO's fave activity? Reading stories with mom and dad, going on walks.

    A new fave gadget/toy/clothing/etc that you recommend to other Moms? I just got one of those spoons that connects on to the end of food pouches and you just squeeze the food through, pretty nifty.

    Does LO prefer Mom or Dad? Depends on the day! Sadly I think she's a daddy's girl. She watches him wherever he goes and he makes her giggle a ton. However, if anything she prefers our dog. She's obsessed with the dangles on his collar!

    Anything to add? Time needs to slow down! My once tiny 8 lb newborn is now a 20+ lb half a year old baby. How did that happen! (and my back hurts because she's so heavy!)

    How old is your LO?  6 mo 3 wks

    How much BM/F per bottle? I'm between jobs this month so he's EBF right now.
    How much baby food per sitting? Usually 1-2 oz twice a day, plus some BLW.
    How many diapers per day? We CD and change after every feeding during the day, which is usually about every 3 hours. He's in an overnight disposable at night.
    What time is bedtime? Wake time? Bedtime is 8ish. Usually up right at 6 (and every 1-2 hours in between).
    Is LO rolling over? Yes, in all directions.
    Is LO sitting, unassisted? Yes. He used to sit for long periods but is now so interested in attempting to crawl (unsuccessfully thus far) that he often throws himself down onto his belly pretty quickly.
    Can LO get up on all fours? Rarely for a few seconds.
    Is LO crawling? Nope, although he does scoot around 360 degrees and can scoot himself backwards a little, much to his dismay.
    Can LO pull themselves up? No.
    Is LO standing, unassisted by mom/dad (couches count)? No.

    MORE FUN!!!
    Favorite food? Most disliked food? He loves the banana, brown rice and cinnamon puree by sprout. In terms of real food, he seems to particularly enjoy broccoli and salad leaves.
    How many times has LO's hair been cut? Zero.
    Your LO's fave toy? He most likes playing with objects that are not specifically toys, like a paper bag or a spatula.
    LO's fave activity? Looking at doggies. Standing assisted and jumping/bouncing up and down. Getting raspberries blown on his belly/armpits.
    A new fave gadget/toy/clothing/etc that you recommend to other Moms? For baby, I resisted getting a jumperoo for a long time, and now that we have it I'm so glad. For mom, I was feeling bad about all the paper towels I was going through now that we're doing solids, and I just bought unpaper towels on Etsy to use instead. I'm in love!
    Does LO prefer Mom or Dad? He likes us equally. Dad is funnier but Mom has milk. My husband is a SAHD so he's extremely involved, obviously.

    How much BM/F per bottle? She is still EBF on demand. I have no idea!

    Is LO rolling over? Front to back and/or Back to front? All which way.

    Favorite food? Most disliked food? She loves... everything. She really enjoyed her squash + curry this morning. Well, I guess avocado would be her least favorite, she's not quite as enthusiastic about avo.
    How many times has LO's hair been cut? Never
    Your LO's fave toy? My cell phone... 
    LO's fave activity? Doing anything outside
    A new fave gadget/toy/clothing/etc that you recommend to other Moms? She hasn't had much new recently! She likes pretty much anything. I have 3 bins with a few different toys in each and I'll just give her 1 bin a day so she gets different toys on different days usually.
