5 Months Old!

 Katie is 5 months old!  She is such a delight and we are truly enjoying every minute.  She is such a happy and social baby - she loves to interact and is really smiley.  The time is flying by, and it truly is bittersweet.  As she is the last baby we will have, I wish it would go a little slower.  However, we are really enjoying every minute. 

This month Katie:

* started solid foods.  She has had bananas, carrots, peas, squash, apples and pears.  We thicken it with rice cereal when needed.  She loves to eat and does really well eating off a spoon.

* started going to bed earlier!  The earliest I have put her in her crib is 7:30pm.  She is still sleeping until 7:30-8:30am.

* really started talking/shrieking

* is very social and wants to be where ever we are. 

* is eating 6-7oz when taking a bottle
