16 weeks old.

   Raven is 16 weeks old today, I cant believe that she is nearly a whole 4 months old!! The time has gone soo quick and the last week has flown.

   This week Raven has become a super smiley baby and even more talkative and her cheekiness is unreal. We are still waiting for that little giggle to arise and we are hoping that its just lurking around the corner.

   She is starting to nap better throughout the day now, very two hours for about twenty minutes or so. Last week Raven was struggling to nap at all and was soo soo fussy because of it. However this week because the naps have become easier, I think this is why she is not as grouchy. She must get that from me as I do not survive well on little sleep even though that's what mummyhood is like now. Which is completely worth it for our little munchkin. On the subject of sleep, Raven still isn't sleeping very well at night however our health visitor has advised us to start weaning as she thinks that this is a sign of Raven being ready. For more about Raven weaning I have previously written a post about what our health visitor advised. Raven also starts weaning next week! Which mummy is super excited about doing. So stay tuned for my recipes for my homemade baby rice and vegetable and fruit purees. 

   Something that has taken me by surprise, but obviously in a good way, is that it appears that Raven is trying to sit up. ALREADY!! I cant believe how quick she is growing up, she also now hates laying down when being held but loves being supported slightly to stand up and to sit up to observe the world around her. She also likes watching abit of TV here and there, which gives Mumma time to do some odd jobs around the house. 

   So this is our progress this week. Its just so amazing, how so much can change in the space of seven days. We cant wait what she is going to learn in this coming week. 

PS, this is Ravens progress from the start of week 15 to today, week 16.

Ta Ta,
