Five Months Later....

 

Is this baby really FIVE MONTHS OLD? I Seriously can't believe that my baby is this big, time has just flown by. Last Year at this time we were just telling family that we were expecting and keeping our fingers crossed that the pregnancy would "stick". How Quickly life changes?!

At 5 months, Blakely has really gotten to be a busy bee. She is so busy that I'm always hoping nap time will be replenishing for both of us! Her little personality is really starting to shine through and she is such a fun & spirited little thing. We are having soooo much fun with her, she is such a great addition to our family.

 

Highlights At 5 Months

 

 

Can roll from belly to back and back to belly

Had her two lower Central Incisors come in (we hate teething) 

Got her first cold, just in time for Christmas! (boo)

Started eating cereal-not too big of a fan thus far. (I started adding applesauce in and she'll eat it a little better)

14 pounder

Hair is long enough to give her a little "Mohawk"-yippie!

Super interactive with toys, books and singing songs

Super aware of what's going on around her

Keeps a close eye on wherever Dad is

Turned into a "mommy's girl" (love/hate)

Loves her car seat now

Better in grocery stores

Smiles for everyone

Started to lean at people when she wants them

Lunges for toys, books, dogs

Like to watch "Tow Mater" on Netflix with Dad

Sleeping HORRIBLY! (Dang cold & teething)

Her smile changed from a big open smile to more of a small grin-cute

Jabbers more-yells at her toys when she's frustrated (mostly because she can't fit the whole thing into her mouth)

Went swimming for the first time

First Christmas Festivities

Smiley

Loves to eat her toes

We thinks she is advanced:)

Knows what she wants and wants it NOW

 

 

First trip to the pool! She was so preoccupied by all the sounds and people to even really play.

Learning to eat cereal...not much love for the Rice Cereal. (I don't blame her, that stuff is NASTY)
