5 MONTHS

      I can't believe it either!  Avery was 5 months on Sunday.  Mommy picked up an extra shift Sunday and then worked her usual Tuesday so that is why there is a delay in her monthly post. 

 - Avery goes to bed around 7:30pm and sleeps for 10 hours.  Sometimes we dream feed her so we can get a few extra hours in the morning. 
- She frequently rolls from back to tummy and on a few rare occasions she rolls from tummy to back. 
- Loves her Johnny-Jump-Up and exersaucer.
- Wearing size 2 diapers.
- Always smiling and has the most adorable laugh.  We enjoy hearing it more and more everyday.
- Is starting to be quite squirmy when getting changed and when being held.
- Avery is starting to attempt to scoot.  Se has learned to pull the blanket to get toys to come to her when doing tummy time.
- Still wearing some 3-6 month clothing and most 6 month.
- Her cheeks are adorable and they are the first thing people talk about when they see her.
- Is eating rice, oatmeal, sweet potatoes, bananas, peas, carrots and loves her mum mums.
- Avery is close to being able to sit up.  She does it for a short time before toppling over.

- She's a tummy sleeper just like her mommy and loves her naps too! Taking at least 1.5-2.5 hour nap twice a day.

- Infatuated with Sadie!

- Still loves to cuddle with mom and dad. 

- She's a big drooler and constantly has her fingers or entire hand in her mouth. No teeth yet!

       Avery has found her feet and loves to play with them.  She wanted nothing to do with the camera when I was trying to capture her 5 month photo.  She is starting to hold herself up well and it will not be long before she is sitting up on her own. 

 

 Our little wiggle worm.

 "Hey mom, enough with the pictures!"

 Still have some work to do on the sitting.

Looking up to her big sister, Sadie.
