Our new nephew Landen Michael made his way into the world on April 12 and we are so happy that he is finally here! We just love him! He was a big 9lbs, 4 oz and 21.25 inches long! Venily is officially no longer the baby in the family, but she doesn't mind! She loves her new cousin and can't wait until he is old enough to play with! He is so cute and little, I just want to look at him and hold him all day long! It makes me want another sooo badly, lol! It was so cool to be able to watch the whole labor process from another perspective so soon after giving birth to Venily. It was like reliving the whole thing over again! And he was born in the same hospital, in the same room as Venily!
Venily had her 6 month appointment on Monday and was 16lbs, 13 oz and 27.25 inches long! The doctor says she looks very healthy!
We moved into Grandma and Grandpa's on Sunday and everything is going great with that! I think it's nicer than our last house! Venily has transitioned very well and LOVES seeing all the people coming and going from the house all the time! Jason has already started getting the permits and stuff in order for our new house and we should be good to go with starting the septic within a week! Then it will be working on the construction loan, digging the foundation, and all that fun stuff!
We have been LOVING the weather lately, I'm so glad that Spring is finally here, we needed it so badly! Venily really loves playing outside and going for walks! She played in the grass for the first time the other day! The first thing my little girl does is pick up a clump of dirt and start playing with it! Ahhhh! NO! Then when I took that away she picked some grass and tried eating it, lol! We played with bubbles and she went in the swing all by herself for the first time and swang with Matt and Kaitlyn! We also went for a walk down by our property and I fell in love with Lily Lake all over again! It's just such a nice place to grow up! I can't wait until she gets to go to Wheatland and I get to bring her to her little friends' houses and have her friends over at our house!
Some updates: Venily LOVES to sit and can sit for as long as she wants! She also rolls over both ways no problem. She's still not crawling yet, but I am FINE with that! :) I don't want her to crawl, even though I know it has to happen eventually!!! I already have to keep my eyes on her all the time as it is! She's doing great with finger foods now and can even pick them up and feed them to herself! Sometimes she can't quite get them in her mouth, but it is SOOO funny to watch, lol! She loves the fruit and veggies puffs and bits of my food too! I've been making a lot more of her foods too now, and I like that, even though it's more work. I can make it to the consistency that I want, which is nice! We have yet to find a food that she DOESN'T like!
At 6 months....
Venily's LIKES:
* Eating finger foods, she goes CRAZY for them!
* Other kids and animals- they make her so happy! She's just like her Mommy! :)
* BATHS!!! Yay, she finally likes baths!! Now she sometimes gets mad when we take her out! And her favorite toys now are bath toys!
* Playing outside and going for walks!
* Looking around at everything, she's the most observant little girl ever!
* Playing with anything that someone else is holding, she wants it for herself!
* Being silly, and playing copying games!
Venily DISLIKES:
* Being tired! She is definitely a girl who needs her naps!
