almost 5 months


Cami will be 5 months on Sunday and she is such a big girl now! It sometimes makes my heart ach how fast she is growing up. She is so happy most of the time. She is a big roller now. As soon as you put her on her belly she flips herself over. I go and flip her back a few times. It’s a fun game we play. By the end she gets mad and then just wants me to pick her up. Nothing else will do. She has not rolled back to belly yet but has come very close. I am sure when she does she will not be happy about it when she realizes what she just did put her on the dreaded belly. She's talking SO MUCH, blabbering on and on. Her noises are so sweet; from the conversations she has to her high pitched squeals. She still communicates a lot with her eyes "pick me up! pick me up!" She does a lot of raspberries these days too. Pretty constantly when she is happy. She spits so much her face is always covered. And she drools so much. Avery only drooled while teething. Not Cami we go through a lot of bibs a day trying to keep her dry. Her naps are still most often around the 40-minute mark. In the afternoon she naps in her bed for about her 40 minutes then wakes but she is still tired so I move her to the swing and she will sleep there for hours no matter what is going on around her. She takes 3 naps a day and goes down for bed around 7ish. At night she is still up twice. Trying hard to get it to one, but I am not succeeding. I think I will start cereal soon. Hopefully that will keep her fuller longer. At least though I am able to feed her and put her right back down. When I hold her and feed her, she is reaching and playing with my face and clothes all the time now. She's also fascinated with hands. She is not crazy about being in her car seat. I think we killed that letting her sleep in it for 4 months. When we get to the store or whatever she rides like a big girl in the stroller or in the front pack. She loves the front pack. She would ride in that all day and has fallen asleep in it. She's starting to sit up for longer intervals. We still have to be right by her, but she's really getting stronger. Her favorite thing is to be talked to, by anyone! She also loves watching her big sis. Cami thinks Av is so neat and gets to do the best stuff. She is fascinated by her big sis! She really plays in her exersauser now and can do a lot of the toys on it. And there you have it. The life of a 5 month old!
