5 Months Old

Baby girl is now 5 months old! Where did the time go? It is flying by way too fast and I just want it to slow down! She's growing so much. We got a weight check last Saturday and she weighs 15 lbs, 6 oz. She is up from 13 lbs, 9 oz from 5 weeks prior, but it was on a different scale, so not sure if it's exact. But, looks like she's still growing! And she has the sweetest disposition. Every morning I wake up to a smiling girl. I'm savoring every smile because I know there may (probably will) be a day when she wakes up hollering for me to get out!! :) She's starting to sit in the "tripod" position for several seconds by herself. She's rolling all over the place. She starts on her back at one end of the crib and ends up on her belly at the other end. We've had the crud here the past couple of days. She is not happy when I have to suction her nose, in fact, she screams like I've just given her a shot! Hopefully this will pass soon. But, 5 months without sickness is pretty good to me! We have not started cereal yet. I'm holding off as long as I can. It's so tempting, but we're planing to wait until just before her 6th month birthday at the end of October.

Here's some pictures!



Wild thing....this hair has been sticking straight up all day!



Here is the 5 month old baby girl wearing her other Baylor outfit.


Last weekend, we participated in the Uvalde Walk for Autism. It was nice to have hubby and baby girl with me. She's ready to go!


Always happy!


Our family!


Pooped at the end of the day, but always
happy to have her chicken to chew on!

In other news, we bought a bigger vehicle. I've been in love with Toyota's Sequoia for a long time, so we found one a couple of weeks ago and came home with it. It's big and spacious, and I can put the stroller in the back without having to struggle! Can't wait to travel in it in a week to our friend's wedding in Fredericksburg!

Everything else is going well. We're looking forward to a quiet weekend here at home to catch up on some rest!
