6 months

This week Emery is 6 months old. We visited the doc today for her well visit, and she had 4 shots. It was horrible. I cried before she did. Dave held her for the whole thing and it was really bad. She almost stopped breathing afterwards. She was in shock the poor thing. Ok i'm getting upset again, no more talking about shots. Dr. Davis said very few, if any, 6 month old kids sit up as well as Em. He thinks she'll be walking by 9 months. OMG! We better lock this house down. She's close to crawling too, she's almost there. Today she pulled herself almost to standing on the laundry basket. I was shocked. This kid is ready to move. Dr. Davis also said that her "attachment" to me is a sign that she's smart. She's figured out who I am and that she needs to be with me. He did say she could start to manipulate me though and to watch out for that. (great)

We are still having a lot of night wakings. It's hard when you don't know what to do next. All the systems and books I read talk to you as if you are with your kid 24/7. Which i'm not. She's with 3 different baby sitters, one being my mom. I know we have to get into a better routine, and now my mom is back to full strength after the pace maker. So it should get easier.

Dave and I have cut back on all spending for a while. I listed a bunch of stuff on Ebay today and I'm trying to find some different ways to make some side money. KMK is doing good, but could be better. I'm having a little bit of a hard time finding new clients, but i think that's just sales.

Last week my friend Kayla took Emery for an hour while I had a meeting. Well she showed up here with some amazing photos she had taken of her! I'll share them when i get them.
