5 Months Old

Emma is 5 months old today. Can you believe it? I know I say this every month.....but she has changed sooooo much. She continues to be a very happy baby. Don't get me wrong....she has her drama queen moments...but overall, she is a piece of cake. I just love her more and more everyday. She is still sleeping great in her crib at night. She has been sleeping unswaddled for almost 2 weeks now. She likes it so much more now that she is able to move around a little bit. Even though she hasn't rolled anymore she still manages to turn herself completely upside down during the night. We can lay her in the crib one way but then in the morning she is turned completely the opposite way. She is eating her baby food like a champ. She has gone through carrots, bananas, sweet potatoes, pears, apples and cherries. She is great at opening her mouth when she sees the spoon coming. I have been feeding her twice a day and I have been able to eliminate one bottle per day that she had been getting. Even though she is only 5 months old...she has learned how to beg. If she sees us eating something she opens her mouth and her eyes get big. She has shown a great interest in her toys the past month. She will look at them and grab them. She has also learned to pick them up and drop them on the floor. It was cute at first but it gets old really quick. I am so proud of her for all the things that she has learned. She is such a big girl.She is still learning to sit...this is as much as she can do right now...she kind of looks like a frog :]Hanging out in her cribNeed I say more?Little DuckyIsn't she just the cutest baby ever?She still loves to swing.
