Seven Months
-Crying: Yes, she has quite a repertoire ... but we found out what cry means what ... not that it helps much, though :-).
-Laughing: It's so funny to find out ways to make Mylène laugh loudly. This is a sound I cannot get enough of.
-Moving: By now, she not only rolls over her right shoulder, but also over the other one. Besides that, she has found out how to move around in circles on her belly. She doesn't crawl yet, but her ass does move up often. Furthermore, Mylène can almost sit by herself without support already. She likes it a lot when you let her grap two fingers and pull her up to sitting position.
-Sleeping: Sleeping during the night goes very well. She goes to be around seven, and wakes up around 6:15. During the day, she usually sleeps twice or three times: one time in the morning around nine, quite long (up to 1,5 hours) after lunch, around 13:00 and sometimes shortly, around five. Sleeping in the car seems to be over permanently.
-Eating: 5 times a day. After waking up and a diaper change, she gets a 250 ml bottle with H.A.2 baby milk. Then, another bottle around 10:30. Around 13:00 she gets veggies with meat. In the afternoon around 16:00 Mylène eats rice porridge (with H.A.2 milk). We try to let her drink some tea afterwards, but she does not like tea and refuses to drink it. At 19:00 she gets the last 250 ml H.A. bottle.
-Observing: She is a very active observer and keeps a close eye on everything that happens around her.
-Hair: Really growing, and it seems to be getting lighter.
-Weight: approximately 9 kg
-Size of clothes: 68 and 74
-Other: Mylène is imitating. When clapping two objects in two hands against each other, she observes very closely, and then tries to imitate this with two objects she is holding herself. Because the eye-hand coordination is not so great yet, she doesn't always manage to let the objects hit each other though :-)
