5 Months old!

Avery Yvonne you are 5 months old!!!You are growing so fast.

You cut your first tooth this month!

You have been drooling and chewing on stuff for the past 2 months and your front little bottom tooth finally popped out!

You now weigh 16.5 pounds (according to our bathroom scale)

The 3-6 month clothes are starting to get snug!

You roll over like a champ, but then get stuck on your tummy.

You are starting to reach for things, and get a good grip on all of your toys now.

You are such a happy baby!

You smile at everyone and love to be held and played with.

You are a little high maintenance...

you fuss at me if I leave you on the floor to play by yourself too long

You are getting so good at bedtime and nap time!

All we have to do is lay you in your crib, and kiss and rub your face for a few minutes.

You cuddle with your lovey bear and go right to sleep.

You are still exclusively breastfed, this means sometimes you don't poop for awhile.

The doctor says this is normal, and you only rarely get crampy,

but this picture is after one of your blow outs!

I had to wash you off in the sink!

You can sit up for a few seconds now before tipping over.

You love to sit up to, no more laying down baby stuff!

You like playing in your bumbo chair and excersaucer.

In the mornings you will also lay in your bouncy chair and watch Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.

We love you so much!

It seems like you grow and change everyday!

Next month you get to start eating food!

You will love that, because you are very interested

when we eat in front of you now.

I feel so blessed to be able to stay home with you right now.

Like I said you grow and change everyday, and I am so lucky to be home with you for all these changes.
