5 months old already!!!



Where does the time go????? I cannot believe our little munchkin is already 5 months old.....


here's this month's info:


let's see . . .at 5 months:

weight/length/percentiles: TBD - we have a GI appointment tomorrow. . at her last pedi visit which was at about 4.5 months she was 15lbs 12oz and 26 inches long putting her in the 80th percentile for weight and the 90th for length!!!

sleeping: through the night and 2-3 naps throughout the day

teeth: still working on the bottom two - her gums are all swollen and she's in pain a lot from them. . . she bites bites bites. . . Infant Tylenol and Baby oragel help as do teethers in the fridge and a washcloth with an ice cube. She seems to run a low grade fever with them as well.

smiling: of course!!!

laughing out loud: yes. . not consistantly but certain things really get her giggling

rolling over: she rolls ALL over the crib (tummy to back) but is like a turtle once she gets on her back .. .rofl. .makes bedtime a bear lately LOL . she's been falling asleep on her side and falling onto her tummy though.

eating: 6oz every 4 hours (24 oz daily) plus 2 Tablespoons of cereal with 2 feedings and 1 Tablespoon with the other 2 feedings. We've started fruits and veggies at her 11am and 7pm feeding - she's tried carrots, sweet potatoes, squash and pears. She's really seemed to like them all - though i would say carrots are her LEAST favorite.

other: scoots all around her crib at night, holding her head and trunk up amazingly well when on the floor, grabs for everything!!! if we put her in a "tripod" sitting position she'll stay up for a good minute or so.....can hold our hands and go from sitting to standing. . ."talks" all the time. .. screams as well. . she's really found her voice!!! loves her feet . .she loves kicking them (especially the right leg) and loves pulling them up to her mouth when she's on her back LOL, she's so happy all the time. . even when she wakes up. Loves her jumparoo and her exersaucer, LOVES belle so much - always smiles and laughs when she sees her walking by .. . much more interested in belle than belle is in her ROFL
