At 7 months Kinley...
*Wears mostly 6-9 month clothes but still has a handful of some 3-6 month clothes she wears.
*Size 3 diapers.
*Whether it's teething or a sleep regression or both, this girl has not been sleeping. She'll do great one night, but then the next like week she is up anywhere from every 45 min to mayyybe 3 hours. We have NOT been sleeping over here and it's taking a toll on this mama. So she get's up maybe once or maybe like 8 times a night. Just depends.
*Teething and is fussier than normal. It's so sad :(
*Squeals a lot. Especially at Caleb.
*Loves to watch Libbie.
*Loves being outside and that's where we go if she's been pretty fussy.
*Army crawls and scooting like crazy,
*Alllmost sitting up unattended.
*Still loves her dad and thinks he is just hilarious. He can get the best smiles out of her.
*Still definitely a mama's girl.
*Getting sassier every day.
She is keeping me more and more busy every day. She's kind of at a stage where she just isn't content with much of anything and wants me to hold her all the time. I swear my arm muscles are gaining some muscle from holding her cause she is getting heavy! Although she hasn't been too content, she still is hilarious and it's fun to see her grow and learn. Her current favorite thing is the door stoppers. She'll sit and fling those things for a long time. haha. We love you baby girl!
Caleb had to go to Boise for his work again. This time he hitched a ride with a buddy so I didn't have to go. It's hard going with a baby anymore and when I do go I'm left alone at the hotel or stuck in my car browsing the town cause I had to check out of the hotel or something. So, for me, it's a hassle cause I'm always alone while he is at his meetings and what not. So, I opted out this time. I think it's a lose lose situation for me. I either go and endure a long car ride with a baby and do things alone the entire time, or I stay here alone which I hate so bad too. So, it kinda stinks. After I dropped Caleb off for him to head down, I may have cried. I don't know why I have such a hard time with him being away from me but I do. I hate being alone without him. It was the longest 2 days ever. I kept waking up all night cause I was alone, and I just missed him! The next day I chose to go run some errands that could have waited but I needed to kill time. So that's what I did. I was happy to have picked him back up again and back home with me.
After phone tag again, we are scheduled to meet with the Metabolics doctor when we go down for our Neurology appointment in August. We're still waiting for a call back but it is for sure in August when we go. It is then that we for sure will repeat the urine test, and do more blood work. They will do blood work every time we go down to check her medication levels. :( That's the only tests I know of that have to for sure be done. I am nervous and don't even like thinking about what more they will have to do. So, if the month of July could go slow, then fast forward to September with us all being healthy would be ideal.
Just a quick little postpartum update, my hair is still falling out like crazy. I do think it is slowing down some but I still am shedding like no other. Hair everywhere. On the bright side, the spots that left me bald on my hairline are starting to grow back. They are annoying and I can't hide them since my whole hairline is like an inch long but at least they are growing! I also have still been working on my weight loss and have successfully lost 58 pounds pre pregnancy. I work out about 5 times a week and am still careful with my portions. I only lose about 2 ish pounds a month so it's slow but it's healthy and still coming off which I am happy for.
Other than that, we have been barely surviving this heat. We don't have ac. so the house gets hot. Usually high 70s or 80. I don't know what the hype about summer is. We've seen a couple snakes in our yard so I refuse to go out there since I have a true phobia of snakes, bugs everywhere, allergies, I sweat my makeup off, and not being able to escape the heat. It's annoying to shower and get all cleaned up just to go and sit and start sweating. It's super awesome! We are ready for cooler weather for sure! We are still trying to get our yard fixed/cleaned up. Some sprinkler heads are broken and we just haven't fixed them, so we are constantly moving the sprinkler around trying to get our lawn looking nice. We've sprayed the old garden that was full of weeds, and are slowly but surely getting it all cleaned up and looking nice.
