July 20th: We finally bit the bullet and got a crib for our 10 month old. Most people have this done first but clearly the Farsaci’s are bit out of order on our baby schedule. Sofia is starting to learn to sit up on her own and finding strength to pull up to her knees. The co-sleeper just won’t be a safe place for her for much longer. We decided to set the crib up in our bedroom because our split plan home puts Sofia all the way on the other side of the house. Daddy F and I just aren’t ready for that much distance. Sofia is also still nursing overnight and mornings and the haul to get to her bedroom is a little more than this working Mama wants to try and tackle at this point.
Sofia is a super busy bee and isn’t a big fan of sitting still unless it’s for eating. She is still doing great with solids and is starting to prefer more consistency. This means that the level for choking hazard has gone up during meal time so I can’t help but stare her down during her whole meal to make sure I see any signs of trouble. So far so good, nothing a little self induced cough hasn’t cleared. Although, it still makes your heart skip a beat to see them struggle even in the slightest.
The spit ups and reflux are still giving us quite a bit of trouble but we are hoping as she gets bigger and stronger we will start to out grown this. At this point it seems to be more of a laundry problem than a medical issue.
Late July and early August are birthday season for our family. July 21st:Sofia had a blast at her cousin Mia’s 7th birthday party! August 6th: We celebrated with Glama and got a taste of frosting…naughty, Glama!!! August 12: Cuma B her aunt and Godmother had her birthday too! This little girlie is a party animal.
Other Memorable dates in late July and early August:
