Milestones Big and Small

So I'm not procrastinating anymore...

It's gonna be quite to the point and probably quite long because it's going to cover 5 months! But no longer will it be on random papers getting lost around the house. And no longer dependent on my memory to keep it all straight!

May 17 2010  

Savannah Was born - I'd say that's a pretty good milestone!

See her Birthday Post for more details

. Getting used to her track...

. digging her toes in,

. lifting her head,

. pushing off the side

. With LOTS of help from Craig.

May 22 - 5 days: 

. Umbilical cord fell off

. And her first smile! She must have been proud of herself.

 May 25 - 8 days: 

. Scooted 1.5 ft under her own power.

. She was probably loving not having that cord!

May 27 - 10 days: 

. Scooted down her track, 4.5 feet of crawling distance for her.

. Got her PKU, 8lbs 4oz see her 1 Week Old post for more details

. Still had tons of hair!

. getting better and better head control

May 29 - 12 days:
. Scooted 9 feet (on the track) 

June 2  - 2 Weeks: 
 . Scooted 5x down the track, 22.5 ft. 

. Crawled OFF the track.
. Made it 2 or 3 feet on the carpet. 

(She was almost into our bedroom when daddy picked her up)

. Fist attempted photo shoot

. holding her head up really good.

June 6 - 3 weeks: 

. First big trip. We went to NV for her cousin Ashlynn's baby blessing.

. Second attempted photo shoot.

. loves being on her tummy.
. Very happily holds her head up.

. Averages 6 to 7 times down the track a day this week.

. Still mostly moving for the sake of moving, not so much with a goal in mind.

4 Weeks:

. Happily crawling the track! And looking around too.

  
June 25 - 5 Weeks:  

. Rolled over from stomach to back.

 . First pony tail. (I miss her thick hair!)

See Savannah's Blessing post for more details

2 months: 
. Reaching for and playing with toys.
. scooting on carpet more and more
. Always wakes up HAPPY.
(As soon as she see's me she is nothing but smiles! It is SO adorable. I love sneaking up on her when she's waking up so I can get those most precious smiles. Such a good happy baby.)

 . Craig is always sweet to his sister

Aug 21 - 3 months: 
. First Hair cut
Her hair had started to get thin on the sides and she had a few very long strands, along with a mullet. I basically just evened everything that I could up and cut the mullet off.

. She also started to WANT things and crawl to them.
Instead of just moving for the sake of moving, she was definitely doing it on purpose and crawling TO toys or books or whatever she saw that she wanted. SO exciting!

 

4 months:
. Starts sitting on her own
. hair still getting thinner. Sad.
. Really getting good at cross pattern crawling (army style)
. Crawled all over the floor at "The Bunk House" on the farm.
. Loves to Smile
. Laughs (not sure when that started.)

5 months:
. Sitting really well on her own

. sleeps all night. In her crib. (8pm - 6am) aprox.

. rolling from back to belly!

. Crawled a little for the first time on hands and knees!

. started trying to pull up on things

. finally got around to doing another photo shoot.
(I'm still working on Editing these pictures so there will be more to come... later)
