5 months

Happy 5 months to our baby girl! She is a chunky one. She is smiley. But most important she is healthy.

We had a doctors appointment today and he said he's loving her numbers because she's doing great at her only job - growing.

So here's her vitals:

Weight:
2 weeks: 7.88 lbs 30%tile
2 months: 11 lbs 56%tile
5 months: 16.25 lbs 79%tile

Height:
2 weeks: 20.35" 44%tile
2 months: 23"72%tile
5 months: 26.25" 89%tile

Head Circumference:
2 weeks: 13.5" 9%tile
2 months: 15" 28%tile
5 months: 16.5" 55%tile

She's doing all the normal development at her age, grasping, rolling over, supported sitter, cooing, giggling, eating her toes...long division, reading, spelling out words in her alphabet soup...ok ok maybe not those ones quite yet ;)

she has been scratching herself though! She has a new scratch every other day. Especially on her nose. She just had a scratch heal over, then later that day a new one. Then later that night another one by her eye. And i cut and filed those little fingers and toes. But I guess they'll always find a way.


But it doesn't seem to bother her.

Her immunizations went well too. She only screamed on the second shot and the cry only lasted for 10 seconds. She just knew she was going to get a tazmanian devil band-aid at the end.

Likes:

bananas. applesauce. butternut squash. avacados. peas. pears. carrots. sweet potatoes {loves sweet potatoes} jabbering. getting gobbled up. toes. reading. bathtime. swimming. going to the grocery store and have everyone comment on how she has the cutest cheeks. watching her fingers. kick her legs when we change her diaper. put everything in her mouth.

Dislikes:

being ignored-she actually screamed at us tonight. I told her that screaming and interupting us was rude - and she just smiled. being held like a baby. pajamas that cover her hands and feet.
