5 Months!

How I Grow

• I wear 3-6 month clothes now and size 2 diapers.
• I can keep my head level with my body when pulled up to sitting.
• I can push up to standing from sitting when someone is holding my hands.
• I can't roll over yet, but Mommy and I are really working at it (Mommy is worried, but I keep tellling her I will roll over when I get ready!)
• When I’m on my tummy, I can push myself up with my arms a little and look around.
• I love love love my feet!
• I drool…. A LOT! I especially love to make a buzzing sound while I’m drooling… and it turns me into a sprinkler!
• I am a “hip baby” now!
• I can sit up by myself for a few seconds with my hands propping me up… like a tripod! I also can sit up with the support of the Boppy pillow.
• I love to “dance” and move around when I’m standing.
• I love to go on walks! I can sit in my stroller now without the infant carrier.
• My at-home measurements are 15 lbs, 10 oz. and 26 inches long.

How I Talk

• I continue to be VERY vocal! I love to talk and babble… both to myself and people!
• I can laugh… big belly laughs!

How I Eat and Sleep

• I sleep for about 10 hours at night. I go to bed about 9pm. Sometimes I wake up about 5:30 to eat, but I go right back to sleep. When my tummy isn't hurting, I sleep very well!
• My naps are awesome! I take 3 and sometimes a little cat nap shortly before bed.
• I still love to be swaddled when I sleep.
• I rub my eyes and snuggle up to mommy when I’m tired.

How I Respond

• I look around when I hear sounds.
• I want to touch EVERYTHING!
• Sometimes I get upset when I’m not getting attention or don’t like something.
