Tori update...it's been awhile

We finally tried teaching Tori sign language this weekend. We'd show her how to make the more sign between every bite. She hates us! Hahah! We tried it every meal on Saturday and breakfast on Sunday. She would get so upset when we would make her do it. She basically cried between every bite. So we threw in the towel. Next weekend is another weekend.

On a similar eating note, eating is so much fun with her now! We give her everything! She had pancakes with us for breakfast this morning. She had edamame at the sushi place. What's funny though, is that she LOVED all those super sweet medicines and pedialyte when she was sick (as in, she would open her mouth like a bird when she saw the medicine syringe thingy), but she won't drink juice to save her life. No apple juice. No grape juice. Even watered down. So we're back to just water again.

We had to go to the doctor this week again for her diaper rash. After 2 weeks since we went in last, the ointment they gave us was doing nothing. We're now on an "air drying, baby powder, and different ointment" regimen. It seems to be getting better. We'll see how it goes when she goes back to daycare tomorrow.

This doctor was also concerned about her eczema. Of course we saw him the day we got the "cold front" so it was redder than usual. Regardless, he gave us a whole new set of instructions. Sigh...I really hope she outgrows this soon. Btw, oatmeal baths are NOT good for eczema, so don't ever let anyone tell you different! :)

We also got to put her on the scale (which I always love doing!). She's 17 lbs, 7 oz. Over a pound more than she was a month ago. She's getting so big to me. But the crazy thing is, she still fits in her 3-6 month pants. Yep, my 9 month old wore 3-6 month pants today and they're almost too big for her. I just don't understand those sizes...

Can this blog get anymore random? Ha! Good night!
