5 months

This one sure snuck up on us. I happened to realize the date was the 10th.

...Which means our babycakes is adding another month to her ticker!
I just realized I forgot her darn sign. Oh well. Let's just pretend these pictures have a cute sign that says "I am 5 months old today! February 10, 2009"
There. That feels much better.

At 5 Months, Chloe...

~Can roll in either direction multiple times now...
~Can Laugh,Laugh,Laugh (she surprised us today by giving us her best performance to date!)
~Sleeps Unswaddled! No more baby burrito!!

~Sleeps from 7pm-7am, more or less... Fabulous...
~Loves to shop. Seriously. Not a whimper from her even though she is sometimes a little tired. I think she was born to shop.

~Loves her activity gym, her activity center (yes, they are different!)
~Loves to 'help' mommy cook dinner from her high chair. Actually, it's usually her witching hour and she spends most of it bossing me around, aka. screaming ;)

~Is starting to sit unsupported...

I can't imagine that life could get any better. But honestly, I know it can. Which is amazing - soon she'll be scooting and sitting up on her own for more than just a couple seconds before toppling over.

I have to admit, I no longer find myself wishing I had that little itty, bitty, teenie weenie baby I first met. Don't get me wrong, I do miss that stage, but Oh MY GOSH is this new exploring-the-world stage fun! Not to mention I get a whole heck of a lot more sleep these days. I'm so over the zombie phase :)

We love you, Chloe!
Love,
Mommy & Daddy.
