5 months

My baby girl is getting big fast. I am writing a note on 5 months but soon she will be 6 months! I will post her stats at that point, but she is growing so fast, faster than I remember Jackson growing. It has been pure joy to be able to spend my days with her. She truly is a delight to be around and her happiness is contagious! She smiles at almost everyone everywhere we go although I've noticed I haven't done a good job capturing that infectious smile on camera. She babbles all day (very loud), has cute chunky legs (way more chunky than Jackson ever was!), laughs and squeals with delight while playing along side Jackson. Her eyes are always on her brother and she usually has a big smile to greet him whenever they are together. She puts up with his teasing and tormenting for the most part. He finds it very funny to put a toy just out of her reach, watch her crawl to the toy, then move the toy just out of her reach again. Yes, I said crawl! This girl is on the move. She hasn't mastered sitting up yet but she inches her way around the room and is definitely crawling! She prefers to sleep on her belly and continues to wake mom up about every 2 hours at night to eat (she let me sleep far more when she was a newborn). I love this little ladybug and can't imagine our family without her!

She is so cute! Can't wait to see you guys. So I didn't know Josh had to do a residency program. That is exciting!

Wow, crawling at 5 months?!? No doubt she's keeping you busy. I'm loving Katelynn's voluminous hair! She's precious.

she is a little chunker! I love it! I can just see Jackson tormenting her. I wonder what that would be like...
