5 MONTHS!

Zuri is officially 5 months old!  I can't believe it!  It's amazing how much they grow in such a short time.  She is now wearing 9 month pants (although some 6 month pants fit) and 6 month onesies.  We had to go out and buy a few more pajamas because she outgrew all of the ones that we had.  I remember that some of them we thought were so huge when we got them and now she is so big that she broke a zipper on one of the legs!

She still has only rolled over from stomach to back the one time.  She has had quite a few back to stomach roll overs, but mainly in her crib while she is sleeping.  Probably because she likes to sleep on her side and rolls over sometimes in the process.

Today while trying to teach her "squeezes" aka hugs, she was holding onto my neck and standing on my legs without me holding on to her!

She has been a pretty good girl for us!

At 5 months she has been enjoying her jumperoo...

She enjoys practicing sitting...

 Oddly in the picture above I was getting her to reach for my hand, which she did, but that was one of the first times, so I am not sure if it was on purpose!

Here she is sitting without any back support, which she can do sometimes in chairs etc, but not on the floor yet.

She has been enjoying playing with her feet.
Enjoys sweet potatoes and carrots
For her supplemental bottle we have found that she loves the Organic Earths Best formula (she did not like many of the other formulas we tried).
She likes to play on her play mat
She likes her bath (can't wait till she can sit well because I bought her a winnie the pooh small bath tub, instead of having to fill the whole tub).
She likes splashing in the bath (not so good for me, because we are still washing her in the infant tub on the changing table, so it splashes everywhere!)
She loves kisses
Especially kisses on the belly
Enjoys going out to places to watch people
Likes to look at herself in the mirror
Loves the dogs (especially Polar)



Dislikes:
Laying on her stomach (I keep trying because I want her to roll over again!)
Some days she dislikes her naps!


I know there must be more dislikes, but that is all I can think of!


Almost 1/2 year old!
