Happy 5 months Rylee



Our little "boo" is 5 months and is the cutest girl ever. Her personality is growing everyday. From the moment she wakes up in the morning until she puts her head down at night she is so happy and full of life. We are enjoying every moment of this journey.
At 5 months:
- she weighs 16lbs!!
- wears a size 2 diaper
- has started the teething process-poor thing can't get enough in her mouth and is a drooling machine. But thankfully, is still STTN.
- sleeps about 11 hours at night (yeah!!)
- Loves to roll and roll. She can go from her back to her stomach to her back without any problems. There is no more leaving her on the bed or couch.
- loves tummy time. She enjoys spending time on her stomach playing, especially when she does her push ups to see what is going on around her.
- Sleeps on her tummy. She prefers to push herself all the way up the crib to the left hand corner and tuck her head right against the crib ( I have had many sleepless hours checking to make sure she is not stuck!)
-Gives us the biggest smile when we walk into her room when she wakes up. She loves to push herself up and look towards the door as we call her name. The smile is the most priceless thing ever!!
- Thinks the greatest toy ever is her toes. She prefers her right foot but will grab both and put them in her mouth. She really loves to do this on the changing table while we are attempting to change her.
-Loves her Sophie (chewing toy). This is the one item I do not leave home without.
- loves to blow bubbles and make raspberries with her lips.
- "flaps her arms and kicks her legs when she gets really excited.
- Loves to laugh out loud when her daddy talks to her in their special language.
- loves her jumperoo...especially the hanging banana. She also loves her play mat and will spend hours tugging on the animals legs
- loves to join us at the family table for meals and is obsessed with our food and drinks. She will stare us down through every bite and drink.
- loves to talk and babble- I think I have heard a "momma" or two :)
- no longer likes to be in her car seat at restaurants- she prefers to be in our lap and watching everyone and grabbing for anything in her sight.
- is the best daughter ever, I love you!!
