She can also pull herself up to sitting if she is on her tummy, but not from her back yet. Rolling is also something that is still rare. She's much more interested in pulling herself up (or rather trying, so far she can't pull herself up in her crib or from sitting using chairs or whatnot) and doing mini nose dives move.

Our BumGenius 2.0s arrived yesterday afternoon, but I did not have their pre-wash/dry done before bedtime, so I did not get a chance to check their obsorbency overnight, but I put one on her this morning and so far so good. I was not sure I'd like the velcro, but I really like how easy it is to adjust the size around her waist. Owen is on board with CD'n, but he's a bit skeptical atm as to them not leaking. I'm sure once he sees that they won't and gets his head wrapped around the whole thing he won't miss 'sposies at all.

We are having some minor set backs with the whole solid feeding. She was doing great, but over the past week she has started refusing even her favourites after a couple of spoonfuls. Yesterday I gave her a spoon of her own, which seemed to help, she ate a lot in between chewing on the spoon. I'm wondering if
a) She's getting bored with her menu - there does not seem to be a lot of variety (various cereals, potatoes, peaches, pears, pineapple, yogurt, cauliflower, pasta, brocoli, carrots, rice) which is my fault, I'm running out of ideas. I have The Baby's Table book, which has a lot of ideas, but some of the recipes seem so involved.
or
b) She's teething again and her gums are bothering her? Normal teething for her is a diaper rash for 3 days, tons of thick drool and night sweats, which she has not had, so that's why I'm wondering if it's just a variety issue?
Does she eat much finger food yet? With Wil we found he really wanted to feed himself instead of being fed and wouldn't eat very much when we tried to feed him. If we let him jam cheerios into his mouth during a meal though he'll quite happily open up for spoons of baby food.
