5.5 months old

Little miss Molly is growing up so fast. It makes me sad. But she is soooo adorable. I love her to death! Well since last month, she's had croup twice, fluid behind her ears, and her head rash continued. But luckily her head rash mysteriously disappeared and she's back to her porcelain doll face. However, she is still coughing but I think it's just the winter weather. Also since last month, we have her back to sleeping through the night in her crib! We successfully transitioned her from our bed to her crib (which is still in our room though). So I've been getting plenty of rest again. I think what really helped the transition was swaddling her again. I quit swaddling her while she slept in bed with us and she woke up a lot. But now that I've started to do that again, she sleeps soundly. She still hasn't rolled over from her back to her stomach yet. But she is sitting up quite well on her own. I don't leave her alone though - she'll fall backwards or forwards really easily. But soon, she will be sitting up consistently unassisted no doubt! We experimented with letting her sip out of a glass (just water for now) and she loved it. Everytime we drink something, she wants it! We're anxious to start feeding her baby food. But I still cherish my time with her when I nurse.
