Our beautiful girl is five months old! She has changed so much from the last month and is learning new things every day! We are getting loads of smiles and even a few sweet laughs! We are loving her to pieces…we are so so blessed! Here is what you have done this past month:
- you are consistently sleeping all night long. You usually go to sleep around 8:00pm and wake up for a bottle around 5:00 or 6:00am!
- with that said, you do not nap very much during the day. It has been a good nap day if you sleep for a few hours though out the whole day. (I think you are just too excited by everything new to learn!)
- you are “talking” and cooing a lot! You have even started to laugh more often.
- you started solid foods this month. We started with rice cereal which you didn’t care too much for, and moved onto applesauce and pears. You are eating about 1 jar a day and having about 5.5 oz of formula every three hours.
- you got your first real illness, RSV, and ended up in the emergency room having trouble breathing. The doctors worked on you and you ended up getting better within a week. We were so glad.
- you have discovered your toes and love to grab them and roll around.
- you are reaching for and grabbing your toys that hang down from your play mat.
- you are still totally entertained by your big brother. He is so funny and interesting to you.
We can’t explain how much joy this little girl has brought to our lives! We are so blessed by God’s grace!
