Well, Bea had her first taste of cereal. Not a hit. In fact, it was more of a spit. Almost everything that went in also came out. She liked it a bit better when I put a little prune juice in it, but still lots of spitting. I'm not sure it was the cereal she didn't like, though. She didn't seem too thrilled with the spoon. We'll try again soon.
On the bright side, Bea has been having milk from the breastmilk freezer all week and seems to be doing really well with it. Wahoo! In fact she loves the bottle so much that she starts reaching for it the minute she sees it. I've have had to start hiding it from her when it is warming, because if she sees it too soon, there's tears until it's ready. Conversely, she's getting more and more frustrated with breastfeeding -- I think it's too much work. So, we're weaning.
A couple of people have asked what her stats were at her 6 month check up -- well she was 14 lbs 3 oz and 24 inches! What a big girl.
Also, Bea has been sitting up for up to a minute or two by herself with no help. She topples over fairly spectaularly, too.
Lastly, Bea's friend Adam, who I mentioned before, finally did get his heart transplant and is doing well! In fact, he's already home. The average child goes home after a heart transplant in just two weeks. Isn't that crazy?
That's all for now. Hope all is well with everyone!
Love,
Melissa
