Last Friday Hilary turned 5 months old!!! Gosh, babies grow fast!. She’s such a happy baby… seriously. I would say 90% of the time she is smiling, happy and now giggling. The other 10% she’s cranky, fussy and not happy in Daddy’s arms (my poor husband). To be honest, she’s not happy in anyone else arms but somehow my sister seems to have a little more luck on her side.

Likes:

• Loves when Daddy blows kisses to her
• Putting her feet on things to help her roll on her side
• Sitting in her highchair while we eat breakfast/lunch/dinner
• Play dates with her friends
• Bath time
• Pooping in the bath (not just randomly but EVERY single night AND multiple times)
• Her new jogging stroller

Dislikes:

• Still hates socks
• Laying down playing too long
• Her bouncy chair; especially when we are eating a meal at the table
• Bottles (she won’t take a bottle … bit of a problem we are working on)

New Happenings:

• Bed time routine: Nurse, Bath, Cuddles, Nurse again and bed between 7 – 8pm!
• Reaching on back for toys: arching her back like she’s going to roll over
• Teething has started: drool and biting everything (even when nursing – ouch!)
• Giggles
• Very interested in foods we are eating, reaching for food/drink when I am eating.
• Grabbing for her feet.
