Another toy for the lake. So excited to get it out on the water.

Karlee - 5 Months Old

5 Months Old!! You bring us so much joy, Karlee!

 

All the fun stuff of 5 Months Old:

• You are still eating about 4-5 oz when you have bottles, which is mostly at daycare. Mom’s not ready to start food yet (it’s so messy J) so we will do that closer to 6 months.
• You still try to hold your bottle when you do have it
• You love to chew on things, your blankets, paci and toys mostly
• You love to play with your feet. You are getting good at pulling your socks off to reach and get your toes.
• You love watching people. You really LOVE watching Leah. Leah’s at a great age were she loves to dance around and sing all the time. Karlee is really enjoying this. She gets a BIG smile on her face when Leah comes over to talk to her or sing to her.
• You think it’s really funny when Leah runs around and around in a circle in the living room (which she does often)
• You still smile the biggest for daddy. You are definitely starting out as a daddy’s girl
• You’ve started to like your excersaucer more now and will sit in there a little longer
• On 10/02/14, you rolled from your belly to your back, so now you are going to be on the move all over the floor before we know it.
• You’ve had quite a few times where you have slept over 7 hours. Mommy is so lucky with what a good sleeper you are. On 10/16/14 you even slept for 8 hours straight.
• You are such a good baby, seriously. You do get crabby we pretty much know then that it is because you are hungry or tired.
• You can see that some new hair is growing in to replace all that has fallen out
• You love kisses on your cheek and you start to giggle when you get them
• You grab for everything!! Blankets, Leah’s hair, Ziggy’s hair, Mommy’s hair, toys, popcorn, whatever you can get J
• Loves car rides. Always a great girl in the car
• You don’t always like to snuggle to sleep with mommy anymore L Sometimes you will whine until I lay you down by yourself and you can stretch out with your arms over your head
• You can sit by yourself for just a few seconds
• You love to sit up. You will sit in your bumbo chair for awhile but I really think you are going to love it when you can sit up by yourself.
• You still love splashing around at bath time. You and Leah usually take all your baths together.
• You talk and make lots more noises now
• You are still liking your paci, especially for bedtime
• You are the smiliest baby I know. You love to smile at people and seem to be so happy. You have such a beautiful little smile and we love seeing it so often.
• You moved up to 6-9 month clothes and size 3 diapers
• You are so sweet! Can’t imagine life without you!

Pumpkin Patch

I love the pumpkin patch. Love the fall colors and getting fun pictures of the kids enjoying all the games, the horse carriage ride, seeing the farm animals, playing on the playground and picking out pumpkins. It's been a tradition and we haven't missed it since Paige was little.

Lots of pictures of a very fun day!
