Five

Carys, you're five months old today.  What's new?

I'm not sure your exact weight and height, but you have for the most part grown out of your 0-3 month clothes.  You can still wear clothes marked 3 months, but we're having fun dressing you in your 6 month summer wardrobe.

You have started going to the nursery at church where you have been charming all the workers.  Every week we get a report about how happy you have been.  You love people (and attention!)

We started you on rice cereal today.  I love your happy, smiley, charming self, but momma's tired!  You still wake up 2 to 5 times a night.  I'm hoping the cereal will help, but if it doesn't, I still wouldn't trade you for all the uninterrupted sleep in the world!


I think your face says it all!  I tasted that stuff.  It is not fine dining by any means!

You have learned to pass a toy from hand to hand.  (You have also learned to take the paci out of your mouth with your little hands.  But, much to my dismay, you have not learned to put it back in!!)

You can sit unsupported for a tiny while.  You soon tip forward, but you do manage to stay somewhat upright.  You love to do 'squats.'  I will hold you under your arms and you will use your strong legs to push your body from a squat to fully upright.  It appears that I have another athletic baby!

Every day I recount how blessed I am to be the mother of such a beautiful, healthy girl!

Priceless look on that lovable face while she is attempting to eat the cereal.
