Little Girl is Growing Up...

Last night saw a big move for the Jay household - Miss Isabelle moved from her crib into her cot. She has slept in a cot before at my in-laws, but, of course, this is a permanent move. Simon was quite gung-ho about the whole thing - he jetted upstairs and took the crib apart without a second thought. I was a little more upset by the whole thing, especially as we were also shipping all the little baby clothes and the Moses basket back to my sister-in-law for use in November.
Luckily, we have plenty of room in our bedroom to have the cot in on my side of the bed, where the crib used to be. So, Isabelle will be staying in with us for a while yet, until her clingy mommy is ready to let her go to her own room.

This all comes after a busy few weeks. Isabelle has started using her high chair to join us for meals, she holds herself up immensely well during tummy time (after many weeks of face planting and lazily lying on her side instead of bothering to look up), and been rolling around like a wild woman. Her teeth are coming through, and just yesterday she sat up by herself for the first time. I just finished buying her 6-9 month wardrobe, and she is now just 6 weeks away from weaning onto solids. She has also been sucking her thumb, and I was devastated when she sucked her thumb to sleep instead of nursing to sleep one day last week.
I don't know where the heck the last 20 weeks have disappeared to, all I know is my little tiny lady is not so little anymore...
