And Annika is 5 months old today!! I can hardly believe how fast the time as gone. . . we had her 4 month visit last week (almost a month late, yikes!) and she weighed 13.2lbs (20%) and was 26.5" long (95%) - she is our string bean! I went back to compare how big Bergen was at his 4 month visit and he was weighing 15lbs . . . and that was almost a while month earlier then when she went in for her visit. . . so, she is our perfectly happy, healthy peanut who likes to play with her toes, put everything in her mouth and has even started belly laughing at her dad! Now, if only we could get her to sleep better at night. . . .
We also started her on rice cereal last week - which from the pics you will see she wasn't a huge fan. We have continued to try and while she isn't eating a whole lot yet, she at least doesn't cringe when I try to feed her. So different from Bergen who from the first taste couldn't get enough - our little baby bird with his mouth wide open for more. Annika instead presses her lips together and gives me "ohhhh. . . I don't think so" eyes. Makes me wonder what she will be like at 13 (payback time, right mom?)!
Here is a fun video of the kids together. . . Bergen discovered a new game to play with Annika. We just need to watch closely so that he doesn't tip her over!

hey! i wanted to let you know that we have found something that worked for us with Grayson sleeping during the night. i read somewhere that if you bump nap and bed times up by a half hour it is supposed to make them sleep longer during the night. seems crazy i know but after only a day or so Grayson cut out his night wakings. so for example he used to take a nap at 9:30am, 2pm, and bedtime was 8:30pm. we went to 9am, 1:30pm, and bedtime between 7:30 and 8pm and it worked. just thought i would share that tid bit of info with you! hope you had a MERRY CHRISTMAS!
