5 Months


I think this has been my favorite month so far.  We are really starting to see her personality shine through and it’s amazing how much she learns and changes every day!
 *I can’t get enough of her giggle!  I can just get my hands close to her and she will anticipate being tickled and giggle away, so cute!
*She has found her thumb (something she got from me).  So far she really only sucks it while sleeping.  When we lay her down for bed she immediately rolls over onto her right side and sticks her right thumb in her mouth.  She is very easy to put to bed at night and sleeps 11-12 hours, lucky us!
*Naps are another story.  We have started trying to get her to nap in her crib (instead of in the swing or someone’s arms) and it’s going okay.  Tears from both mom and baby the first day, this girl hates napping!
*She now stays awake during walks and outings and talks (squeals) loudly, it’s hard not to be noticed at Target, at least she’s happy=)
*She needs to spend about 30min with an unfamiliar face but then welcomes them as long as mom is close by
*Sucks on her toes and puts everything in her mouth especially her favorite toy which is a giant diamond ring (smart girl).  Big thanks to whoever got us this toy (I can’t remember), she loves it!
*Her hair has started growing back finally and it is so soft and fuzzy.  It’s still hard to tell what color it will be.
*Rolls both ways.
*Loves standing (with help of course).  When I help pull her into a standing position after being changed, she is so proud of herself.
*Loves Itsby Bitsy Spider!  No joke, this girl can go from full tears to a huge grin when she hears this song.  And don’t try to trick her.  No other song will do, we have tried! 
*Still eats every 2 hours, I am looking forward to starting rice cereal very soon=)

*Still has a fussy period from about 5-8pm each night, this will end soon, right?
