Five Months

Oh the joy of watching her grow and still wanting her to stay little.

HC at 5 months:

*Loves to drink water from my glass. Reaches with both hands to grab the glass and pull it to her mouth. It is so cute!

*Says the M-'mu' consonant. Mostly when she is fussing. Like Maaaaaaaaaaaaaa, maaaaaaaaaaaaa instead of whaaaaaaaaa whaaaaaaaaaa. Twice she has said it back to back. mamaaa. Sweet music to our ears. I generally say "i'll be right there' just to hear her say it one more time :)

*Still...loves to nurse, sleeps in our bed, wakes 2-3 times per night (or more), like to be worn in a sling

*Is all about my face, grabbing and squeezing and putting her fingers in my mouth

*Gets tickled and laughs over kisses and kissing sounds (see video below)





*Weighs 16.1lbs and is 25in long

*Likes to watch our shadow when we walk

*Has fun in her jumparoo and excersaucer

*Has grown out of her infant size pre-fold diapers and is on to the next size- regular I think they call it

*As any of you cloth diaper people know, they can be some long diaper changes and she is so patient. Loves her little tiger and dancing frog light on the changing table and just gabs and gabs till we are done.

*Does GREAT!!!!! in her car seat. After 4 months of non stop screaming every time we got in the car, we can finally go places and she doesn't mind it at all. Plays with her toys, sucks her thumb, falls asleep, looks around.. whatever she does.. she ain't cryin'!
