Mila Monthly (The First 6 Months!)

November 9, 2016 By Jamie Dorobek 2 Comments

UPDATE: I had a lot of requests for how we did the monthly photo shoot on white paper with a Sharpie! I spilled the beans!

My baby girl is actually 8 months old and I am just now getting around to doing a 6 month update! That pretty much sums up my life right about now. Lots of plans and to do lists, and little action. In perfect world, I’m taking time to enjoy getting to know my snuggly, curious Mila girl while embracing Maxwell’s curiosity with crafting, trips to the museum, and imaginary play. In real world, I’m cleaning lots of spit up and changing tons of diapers. Oh and watching George. We love George and Clifford. We do go on walks and play outside and snuggle sometimes. Life with 2 kiddos is a game changer, y’all! (11 tips for wrangling 2 under 2) Oh and her name is Amelia, but from day 1, Maxwell has called her Mila. So, Mila it is. If you are new here, here’s her gender reveal party, natural birth story, and their shared nursery!

Oh and here is Maxwell’s 6 month update if you’re curious. I used these cute wooden blocks to record his first year. For Mila, I decided to use plain white paper and a good ol’ Sharpie marker!

0-1 Month:

  • Amelia met her big brother at home the morning after she was born on 3/2/16.
  • Mila took her newborn pictures. Adorableness.
  • She went to her first birthday party when she was only 4 days old, and a second at 5 days old!
  • Mila attended Max’s 2nd birthday party on the parking garage!
  • She did her first Easter egg hunt at the neighbors and took a road trip to New Braunfels.
  • Maxwell loves to crawl in your crib to see you.
