5 months!


Happy 5 months to baby girl, Kaitlin! It's been a wild ride these last 5 months, but SUCH a blast. This month she has rolled from her back to her tummy and vice versa. She found her feet, and realized that she has the ability to ALSO suck on those too!! yuummmm - something new! She also found the upper register of her voice - wowee!! Talk about ear piercing! Not only has she realized that her voice can go that high and that loud, but has also realized that sound is very similar to her crying voice, which in turn means that she is 'fake crying' - what a little girl. Already stretching her limits to see how much attention she can get! And she's figured out that she gets the most attention when she's crying...such a little girl. EVERYTHING goes in her mouth - no matter what it is and her skills at grabbing things is ridiculously good. This weekend she decided that she didn't want to sleep during the night, which meant that I was up every two hours the on Friday and Saturday night. So Sunday night I decided I am going to try and brave out the crying in the middle of the night to hopefully get her to not expect that I am going to come in and feed her every two hours. This will eventually mean that she will actually sleep 10 hours a night (I can't even imagine what that will feel like, but am really excited for the possibility!). I don't have much patience for my baby crying, but I am trying with much reassurance from my wonderful husband that she is okay. Tonight will be night #2 - wish me luck! We sure love this little one, and think she is getting cuter and chunkier by the day, which is the reason why her new nick name is 'chunk o love'! Gotta love those baby rolls!
