My baby girl turned five months a little while ago and I can't believe it! She is starting to get to the "fun" age and Joe is having a grand time playing with her and getting her to laugh! She has grown so much in the last month, here are some new things that she has learned and her stats:
- Claire now wears 9 month clothing!!! She is just so long that everything she owned was way too short in the arms and legs. So Grandma Meloney took us on a shopping trip and we got a TON of clothes for this little girl!
- She eats rice cereal twice a day now and she loves it! When you put her in her high chair she will start smacking her lips, she knows what is coming!
- She also has TWO teeth! They are both on the bottom in the front and I think she is getting her top ones in too. But she keeps biting her fingers and it ends up with her crying, so hopefully soon she figures out that she shouldn't put her fingers in there. :)
(if you look closely you can see her teeth in this pic)
- She has completely grown out of her swing and moved into her new Jumperoo! She loves that thing and has finally learned how to bounce in it. :)
- She has started saying "Da da da da da" when Joe is around, I don't really think she knows what it means but Joe is convinced that she is talking already. :) She loves her daddy though!
- She has also found a new favorite toy...mommy's hair. She thinks it's great to try and grab it all the time and she has such a good grasp that she even pulls it out. I swear I'm going to go bald in one spot really soon!
- She likes to hold her own bottles, although she gets kinda bored with it after a few minutes so we still feed her.
- She puts herself to sleep for all her naps and bedtime but if she doesn't have her purple blanky and paci you can forget about her falling asleep.
- And she sleeps through the night now! Yay!!!! It has been amazing to sleep a full night without having to get up and make a bottle.
- And we have found that she is EXTREMELY tickleish on her back and neck! It is the funniest thing because she will try so hard not to laugh but her whole body is just squirming!
- And I love it that she still loves to be cuddled! We love our little Claire Bear!
