5 Months Old

Holy Cow~ Sophie is 5 months old!
*Sophie is still napping throughout the day really well! Her first morning nap is by far the longest and she can usually sleep about an hour to an hour and a half during her other naps. We still swaddle her when she goes down to sleep and she absolutely loves it.
*She does great at night! I hardly have to get up with her at all these days.
*We are still working on sitting up. She is going longer periods of time and starting to get stable with less support from us or other props.
*She kicks, talks, and scoots up a storm when she is on her stomach. She can straighten her arms and push up onto her hands (well... fists)! When she is on her belly she can roll over onto her back and also turn to face different directions.
*We have the HAPPIEST little girl in the world!
*Sophie has found her toes!!! She enjoys grabbing them and occasionally she tries to put them in her mouth.
*We have introduced her to rice cereal and now we are going to start veggies. I have made her sweet potatoes and butternut squash to try first. Daddy loves to feed Sophie her solids!
*Sophie also LOVES Lucy! She enjoys watching her run around the house and pets her whenever Lucy gets close enough to her. It is so funny to watch those two together!
*Our big girl is wearing a size 3 in diapers and wearing 6 month clothes. However, she can still fit into 3-6 month onsies and 3 month dresses!
*Last but not least.... Soph's hair is starting to grow!!! She is even loosing the fuzzy hair on her cute little ears. :)
We just love every minute with this little girl! She is truly a gift from God and we feel so blessed to be her parents!
