<p>Hi! I thought I'd start a new chat!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I was in the July DD club but sweet Phoebe took her good ole time in the womb. She didn't arrive earthside until 8/10 so we are a month or so behind<span><img alt="winky.gif" height="15" src="http://files.mothering.com/images/smilies/winky.gif" width="15"> some of the babes here.</span></p>
<p> </p>
<p><span>She's nursing like a champ and weighed in at 20.4 pounds at her 5 month wbv. We started with avocado last week and some days she's in to it and others, not so much. She's rolling all over the place and wants to sit up independently so badly but just doesn't have the strenght yet.</span></p>
<p> </p>
<p><span>She's a co-sleeper, much to our surprise. DS slept in his bed so well we just assumed DD would too. Isn't it funny how they teach us things when we think we are the ones supposedly teaching them. I enjoy her sleeping by me and DH doesn't mind it! That's a huge step for him.</span></p>
<p> </p>
<p><span>Unfortunately I have been woh since she was 6 weeks. DH and a friend of ours watch DD and DS so I am blessed to have people that love them caring for them.</span></p>
<p> </p>
<p><span>I have actually found the DS, 4, seems to need me more than DD does. I can sit her down and go play with DS and she's usually happy for awhile. She lets me know when she's ready to be picked up. I wear her a lot on my back to get dinner made or cleaning done around the house.</span></p>
<p> </p>
<p><span>How is everyone else doing?
