FIVE months old!

I can't believe how fast this tiny little human is growing.




She weighs just at 16 pounds, little chunk!  She's still in size 2 diapers, though we're also giving cloth diapers a try! She's popping out of most of her 3 month clothes (that I likely should have moved up a size quite some time ago). Momma is having a hard time not keeping every article of clothing. She's still experiencing some cradle cap, but I've decided to just let it go on it's own . She still LOVES bathtime and actually HATES having to get out and get pjs on. She loves watching her Pups, even if they are just walking by.

She is such a happy baby, it would almost be easier to list things she didn't like than things she does like. I guess the only thing that would be on that list is Tummy Time.  It's tolerable to her, so long as her Brother Boogs is there to entertain. She moves around more in her crib than she does during playtime on the ground.  She LOVES when Mommy belts out and dances to Disney songs... little does she know Mommy does that for herself and her viewing pleasure is only an added benefit. She loves giving open-mouth kisses and sticking out her tongue. She also likes the taste of her feet, hands, fingers, and anything else that comes in contact with her hands. Her mission in life seems to be to taste everything!

In the last couple of days she has been finding new sounds, I've heard some naa-naa's and some laa-laa's. Usually this is all accompanied by streams and streams of drool. Squealing has become her favorite form of communication, however. Basically, when she's awake, you know it!

She LOVES spending time in the jumper, and loves sitting in her high chair at the table while we eat dinner. She LOVES peek-a-boo, and you can tell that she is anticipating the surprise now.

She has been starting to wake up once a night to eat, which is a new occurrence likely to blame on teething. She is also becoming a multi-tasker while she nurses.... she likes to punch Mommy, kick her legs, and try and look around all while eating!

And this is how the 5 month photo session went. 



Teething has been WELLLLL under way and this Little One's personality is really beginning to shine.
