That's right. Put me on the naughty list. I hardly took a single picture this week. Bad mama.
The good news...Everleigh Calla is now 6 months old!!
Some fun facts about Everleigh:
- Everleigh rolls from tummy to back and back to tummy.
- She sits on her own for really long periods of time. No need for pillows or a boppy behind her anymore!
- She has 4 teeth (two on top, two on bottom)
- She is beginning to use her pincer grasp a bit and can pick up small objects (but usually misses her mouth)
- She gets so excited to see mama and daddy!
- Everleigh loves to laugh and squeal.
- Has started to use a sippy cup a bit.
- Everleigh gets up around 7:30am, naps again from 10:00-11:00, again from 1:30-2:30 and sometimes takes a short cat-nap around 5. Then, she hits the hay for the night at 7:30. She doesn't get up to eat in the middle of the night, but we do have to go in to give her the nuk about 5 times a night.
- She has a mean grip and can pinch cheeks and pull hair like no other!
- Ever eats a fruit and cereal for breakfast and veggies for dinner. Mmmm. She loves baby food!
- She still has blue eyes! :)
- Ever loves to snuggle, rock, eat toys and play peek-a-boo!
Personally, I (and have since the beginning) do not think that Everleigh looks like the other three kiddos. Everyone thinks she looks like Madden. They do have the same nose, but beyond that...I can't see it. If anything, I think she looks like Hudson. But...see for yourself... Paisley, Hudson and Madden at 6 months.
So I didn't lie. The only other pictures I took the whole week are here. Ready, set, GO.
The twins taking a bath. Splish splashing until everything is drenched!
Haley came to watch all four kids, ALONE! Something we only typically put Grandmas through! :) BUT, she did great! The kids were happy, fed, and my house was cleaner than when I left. We <3 Haley!
And for the first time in, oh... nearly a year??? ....Paisley let me do her hair in something other than a bun!
The end. Of the pictures. Sad, I know. However, read on for 30 Random Berg-facts
1) Paisley will not sleep with a blanket on her.
2) Madden and Everleigh have noses that produce a ton of buggers. Paisley and Hudson do not.
3) Paisley was born with a hemangioma on her cheek. The doctor said it would likely be gone by kindergarten, and it's hardly visible anymore.
4) Craig randomly sings songs from the past and nobody (not even he) can understand why he was thinking of that song. The most common ones are: "This is how we do it" and "Chang Gang".
5) Hudson is obsessed with anything related to diapers.
6) Everleigh was the one to sleep through the night the fastest. Paisley was 10 months old before she slept through the night even one time.
7) Whenever we turn on to Londa's street, Hudson yells, "Nonda!"
8) Brook sits with a space heater on her lap anytime she is in the living room. She burned out two last winter alone.
9) Hudson is very sensitive.
10) Craig does 75% of the laundry in our house.
11) Paisley is sounding out words in books already.
12) Everleigh's first name has meaning while the other children's middle names have meaning.
13) Paisley freaks if she thinks someone is going to eat all of the edemame.
14) We change over 20 diapers a day.
15) We have a king size bed. Oscar takes up 80% of it.
16) Craig hates talking about work when he gets home from work.
17) Brook needs to talk about work to unwind when she gets home.
18) Madden's obsession with Elmo has escalated every single day for the last couple of weeks.
19) We run our dishwasher 1-2 times every day.
20) Paisley has saved approximately $6.00 to go to Disney World.
21) Hudson prefers fruit over anything.
22) Paisley is particular about how many ice cubes she has in her water. But it's never the same number.
23) When we sing songs to the kids, Craig always starts with "Take me out to the ballgame" and Brook always starts with " 6 Little Monkeys".
24) Madden is deathly afraid of DJ Lance from Yo Gabba Gabba. And Hudson pretends to be.
25) Music and dancing always make us smile.
26) Brook dreads cleaning up on spaghetti night.
27) Hudson loves to wear high heels.
28) When you're 100% sure that Everleigh is poopy. She isn't. The girl is tricky.
29) "Put it up, mom, this is our favorite song!" is what Paisley yells no matter what song comes on the radio.
30) These thirty random facts will likely no longer be facts come 2012. Life changes in a blink of an eye here. It keeps us on our toes and life interesting.
Happy 6 months, Everleigh. Happy Birthday Makyah. Happy Random Thoughts. And Happy Blogging.
