Sophie: 6 Months Old
Just after we posted about our swaddling and sleeping through the night concerns, Sophie changed again seemingly overnight (surprise!) She still wakes herself up coughing (see Pink Eye: Part Deux!), but now she manages to go back to sleep without help and doesn't even need the swaddle anymore. Phew!
Her bedtime is still between 8:30-9:30, but lately she's been sleeping through until 5 or sometimes even 7:30 on the days we're really, really lucky. For the record, I don't think we'll ever win the lottery either..?
The biggest news though is in the food department, as Sophie's now been introduced to both sweet potatoes and carrots (tomorrow: peas!), and eats one or both twice a day. She's quite a pro at eating, and makes short work of her meals.
Teething is also now definitely underway, we recently had to buy some Oragel to help with her sore gums (and shrieks of pain, poor kiddo!) It still doesn't stop her from being a generally happy kid though, as evidenced by the picture above - thanks again Jimmy for sending her the toy!

Sophie's official six-month stats from the pediatrician visit:
26.5" tall (almost hobbit-sized!)
17 lbs.
17" head circumference
75% across the board!
