5 Months Old!

Graecyn is 5 months old today!  She has learned so much in the past month.  She smiles and laughs like crazy and has started to scream, which is cute when she's screaming for fun...not so cute when she's screaming because she's mad.  She's spitting bubbles, grabbing everything and putting it straight to her mouth, and even somewhat sucking her thumb!

She can roll from her back to her tummy like a champ, but has forgotten how to get from her tummy to her back.  When she's on her tummy, she likes to scrunch her legs up and get on her knees.  I think she'll be scooting/crawling sooner than we realize.  When we change her diaper she loves to give us stiff legs, which makes it a challenge to put her diaper on; of course, as soon as we pull the diaper, she relaxes her legs and lifts her butt up so that the diaper comes out from under her.  She can officially get her feet in her mouth and loves to nibble on them.  She kicks her legs like crazy, loves to splash in the bath tub and loves to jump in her jumperoo.

Graecyn has the prettiest blue eyes and her hair is losing its red tint and taking on more of a light brown/blonde color.  Her hair still stands straight up and she now also has a baby mullet.  She weighs 12 lbs 8 oz (5-15%) and is 25.25" (50%)...long and skinny!  She's just started wearing size 2 diapers and wears mostly 3 month clothes (although her butt is so skinny that she can still wear newborn pants...they just look like shorts on her).  I'm still nursing her and she loves to play peek-a-boo while nursing, which is super cute.  We just started giving her rice cereal a few days ago and she's eating it pretty well.  I plan to make her baby food and am excited to start giving her other foods soon.



Happy 5 Months, Baby Girl!
