Over
Thanksgiving, we bought bunkbeds for the older two girls and moved
Tabitha in with the older girls. Surprisingly, and I was surprised, the
three have adjusted very well to sharing a room. Occasionally, it sounds
like a loud slumber party in there, but generally, they do a good job
sleeping and not waking each other up in the morning. And for maybe the
only time in her life, Charis has her own room, and is consequently
sleeping much better. She was waking up every hour or two over the
holidays, which was quite exhausting for her mommy and daddy! Now she's
back to just waking up once or twice. I am a much better wife and mom
when I'm not up all hours of the night!
Charis has
grown into her six month clothes and received several new warm clothes
for Christmas. She's actually my only true winter baby, so we were
thankful for some nice new warm clothes!
This
girl is still super talkative and very easy going. At Bible Study, the
other women often remark that, "she's such a good baby!" And she is, for
which I am very thankful. She also smiles easily and sticks her tongue
out all of the time. I think she's trying to taste the world.
And like the other girls, she has big blue eyes!
She's
not a huge fan of the bumbo yet. Tolerate is a good word to use here.
She doesn't, however, even tolerate tummy time and usually just spits
out the contents of her stomach. It's good to have an alternative to
babywearing and the swing.
