5 1/2 Months

I have been so busy and had so much to blog about that I haven’t updated on my sweetie Lily in a while! She’s 5 1/2 months now!! Time sure flies! She’s getting so big and mobile and such a sweetie. For the most part she’s a pretty mellow girl. Whenever we’re out and about, she loves to quietly observe things, especially if she can watch from the comfort of mom’s lap or hip! She did learn how to squeal and scream a while back though so if it’s quiet, she makes herself heard! :)

Although I haven’t been blogging about Lily I have been taking pictures so here are quite a few I’ve stored up.

She has gotten very strong at holding herself up on her tummy. She can now roll over back to front and front to back, scoot a little bit backwards, and pull her tummy up off the ground. No real army crawling or anything yet, but I’m sure it will be soon. Her sisters were both early crawlers too.

She’s tried a bunch of solid baby foods but is still not really loving them yet. A couple times she has eaten pretty well but mostly she just gets fussy after a few bites. She’s still trying to figure out how to swallow.

She’s getting stronger at sitting but still is pretty wobbly on her own!

I recently pulled out the old Johnny Jump Up for her to bounce around. She likes it and her sisters love to twirl her around.

She sure has a fun smile. Makes my day! I’m so happy to be her mommy! She has been sleeping really well lately (6-7 hours straight most nights), but last night she woke up 3 times and even though I was tired, every time I picked her up I was just so happy to hold her again. She’s so sweet and I can’t imagine our family without our Lily girl.
