FIVE MONTHS!


Quinny, you are FIVE MONTHS!! I cannot believe how quickly everything is going by. At five months....
  • You are wearing 3 month and 3-6 month clothing and a few 6 month.
  • You are wearing a size 2 diaper.
  • You are definitely bigger than month 4, but we don't have your exact measurements.
  • You are NOT sleeping through the night. :) You sleep a max of 4 hours...it's actually gotten worse this month and we think it's because of teething. That means you're still in our room.
  • You will nap in your crib and we put up black out curtains to help with that.
  • You will not sleep without a noise machine on. You can sleep through the loudest noises
  • You are still getting breast milk and usually drink 5 oz at a time! You get very distracted and usually end up trying to roll out of the arms of whoever is feeding you.
  • You have started oatmeal and absolutely love it! 
  • We've also tried sweet potatoes, peas, squash, avocado, peaches, pears, and apple sauce.
  • You HATED squash and you clearly did not get that from your Momma since that's my favorite veggie.
  • You had a bad reaction to apple sauce and your Dr. said to not give you anymore until you're over a year. It was NO FUN! 
  • You love love love the jumperoo - especially the one at daycare since it's lower to the ground.
  • You keep your legs kicking almost 24/7.
  • You are still rolling all over the place. You usually end up rolling right off the blanket you're laid on and end up chewing on it.
  • You are drooling like CRAZY and chew on EVERYTHING. 
  • You still try to sit up when we lay you down and have been able to gorilla sit for a few seconds at a time.
  • Your feet go in your mouth if you're contently laying on your back.
  • You love your feet! If we cover them up with a onesie you will just sit and stare. It's like you're wondering where your skin went. :)
  • You laugh if Momma starts tickling you. It melts our hearts! 
  • You love Papa! He can get you to smile and talk no matter the mood you were in .00002 seconds earlier. You scream with excitement when you see him walk into a room. It's so adorable! 
  • You will put one hand on each of my cheeks and pull Momma to you. LOVE it! Sometimes you will try to latch on my cheek or chin. :)
  • You reached for your Daddy for the first time.
  • You are realllllly good at letting everyone in the room know you are there. You definitely love to be the center of attention. :)
  • You have a talent for being dramatic.....very very dramatic. You let us know if you do not like something almost immediately we the loudest/maddest sounding scream.
  • You like to spit and blow raspberries. This has lead to a bunch of sheet changes.
  • You love to smile more than any baby! Everyone always comments on how happy you always are!
  • You are still in daycare and are doing really well. You love Ms. Amy and seem to be on a really good schedule with eating, playing, and sleeping.
  • You and Riley still like to make each other cry and pick on each other. It's like you trade off days of who is being the class bully and who is being abused. It's cute....for now. 
Quinny, we love you SO much. You let us know you were on your way one year ago on July 22nd, and it was the best news we could have heard! We miss you anytime you are away and cannot wait to pick you up from "school" every day! Your Daddy and I can not get enough of you! We love you to the moon and back baby girl!
