5-7 months

I've started to realize that I'm not great at remembering "little" details about the girls.
I can't remember exactly what Peyton was like at this age,
and I want to remember so i can look back and wonder what to expect.
I want to know exact what kind of schedules they had so I'll be posting just some boring info so that I can look back on it.

Maddie started sleeping through the night (8 hours) at about 6-8 weeks old.
She has been sleeping 12 hours at night since she was around 5 months old.
She got really off her schedule at 6 months due to a trip to UT.
It was a long and painful and sleepless 2 weeks to get her back on track.
With her 12 hour sleeping at night routine, the rest of the day looks like this:
8am: wake, change, eat
8:30-10am: playtime: tummy time, sitting and reaching
10-12: Morning nap
12-12:30: Wake, eat, change
12:30-2 or 2:30: Play Time
2:30-4: Afternoon Nap
4: Wake, eat, change, exersaucer
Playtime, cuddle, read until bedtime
7pm: Nurse and down time
8pm: Bed

She started eating 4x/day at 5 months.
The feedings at 12 and 4pm consisted on nursing and solid foods.
The other 2 were strictly nursing.
At 7 months, she also started solids at the 8am feeding.
By 8 months, she was also eating solids at dinnertime.
