5 Months Old...



Five months.. Where does time go?  Every time I look at you I see myself.  Others have said the same thing that you look a lot like mommy.  I see some daddy in you too especially your little chin and your smile.  Your hair is getting lighter, almost a strawberry blonde color to it.  You are definitely developing your own little personality. Your smile lights up a room and your laugh brings mommy and daddy to our knees laughing too.  We love that you still want to snuggle into our chests and shoulders when you are tired, but are becoming such a big girl wanting to sit up with help to play with your toys and really show your independence flipping over on your own all of the time to get yourself to the toys you want to play with.  You are now in the beginning stages of cutting teeth and you are slobbering enough during the day to fill a bucket, and are chewing on anything you can get your hands on..sometimes even mommy and daddy's fingers.  The way you interact with both sets of grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins is just amazing. On car rides many times mommy finds you telling me about your day through your babbles, and would not trade it for any music on the radio.  You love to bounce in your jumperoo, be outside in the sunshine riding in your stroller, and taking your bath.
