5 months!

First off, let's pretend that this date says Sept 21. :) BUT...the picture is actually from Sept 21 so at least there's that. We were having a "stay in our pajamas" day, so I slapped a bow on her tiny bald head and we ran with it. Haha.

Isabel Jade, at 5 months you:

*Weigh somewhere around 15 lbs. No appt this month so that's a guesstimate. You are around 25 inches long. You are in a size 6 months clothes, and wear a Size 2 diaper.

*Eat 2, 6 oz bottles a day mixed with rice cereal. You eat 2-3, 5 oz bottles of just formula. And you eat a fruit in the morning and a veg in the evening. Your favorites are prunes, pears, & sweet potatoes. But you have also eaten and do pretty well with green beans, peas, bananas, apples, peaches, & squash. You're a good eater to say the least.

*Love baths, looking at yourself in the mirror, toys, your pacifier, talking and laughing, & Pedro. (our Chihuahua)

*Hate the big dogs, diaper changes in public restrooms (still trying to figure this one out) & being still in any one place for very long.

New and fun things that you do:

Roll everywhere at a fast rate of speed, get *almost* into the crawling position, sit in the tripod position (sometimes), talk and talk and talk, laugh & squeal for no reason at all, SLEEP THROUGH THE NIGHT HALLELUJAH, watch every single thing that the dog does, grab for things (toys, the dog, hair, jewelry, glasses, etc.), you slap at the giraffe toy that hangs on the handle of your car seat, and my favorite thing that you do is wake me up in the mornings not by crying but by talking to your mobile. You always wake up in a good mood.

Is it possible to love you a little more each day? You are such a joy to our lives. We are so blessed to have such a happy and healthy little girl to spend our days with.
