I cannot believe you almost a whole half of year old! Ahh!

You are such a blessing in every single way, Em! We love you soooo much!

Mostly 6 month clothes, but you can wear some 3 month, and some bigger clothes like 9 months!

This month you did A LOT of new things!

You rolled over from your back to your belly on Wednesday, June 2o, 2012 for the first time. Then you proceeded to do it one hundred more times! You go girl!


You love to blow raspberries and giggle.

You are laughing and smiling so much! Everyone always says how good and laid back of a baby you are!

You met your Great-Nan and two of your Great-Aunts this month in PA for the first time! They looooved meeting you and soaking in some love!

You also went on your first long (2.5 hour) road trip to PA! You did great and slept almost the whole way!

You love to grab on to everything that we give you and love to pull on all your toys on your jungle mat.


You are so good at letting me know exactly what you want. I know all of your cries.

You are eating about 8 ounces every four hours during the day, and it takes you maybe ten minutes at the most. 

Your sleep schedule is still a little random at night, but I shouldn't complain too much because you do pretty well. You go to sleep at about 8pm, after drinking your last bottle and normally you will sleep until somewhere between 4-6am. Not too bad. You sometimes wake up in the middle of the night to eat and then will sleep a little later before your next bottle. If not, then you drink your bottle anywhere from 4-6am and then back to sleep right away until sometimes as late as 10am. You get up, drink 8 ounces, play, and then usually drink about 4-6 more ounces before you go to nap at 1pm until 4pm. Sometimes you sleep even later than that. You are a pretty good napper. Then you drink 8 ounces, play, have a bath, swing, bounce...ya know, the life of a 5 month old...and then to bed it is. You can fall asleep great on your own. I am so glad you also don't depend on me to fall asleep. What a blessing that is! 


You LOVE your baths and love to kick and splash just like your crazy big sisters!


You can hold your head up so good now and look all around.

You love your binki and your pink bear lovie. You also love your pink glow-octopus that plays lullabys.

You also have noticed the TV this month and love watching it with your sisters.

We also put you in the exersaucer for the first time this month and you LOVE it!


You love sucking on your tongue and making funny sucking noises.

You love chewing and sucking on your fingers.

You can grab your feet now and love it!

You are constantly cooing and talking. It's by so far sooooo sweet!

You still love your swing so much and Natalee gets soooo jealous!


We call you, Emily, Em, Emmy, Emmy Lou, Emmy Lou Lou...along with so many others.

We love you more than you could ever imagine! You are such a blessing to our family!


Momma and Daddy and your big sisters love you so much!


Happy 5 Months Emily!
