5 months!


I know every month I am surprised it has been another month... But, really, where does the time go?! My baby girl is getting so big so fast.  She is now five months old!!  (Well, today she is about 5 1/2... But I am playing catchup!)  Five months of watching her grow, of being "on call" 24/7, of transforming my life... It has gone by SO fast.  It does not feel even close to 5 months since I last clocked in at work.  It is crazy.  Little Peyton has sure become my whole world in the best possible way.  I think I am starting to get the hang of things and more comfortable with the whole mom thing.  It is truly the best thing ever!

But, enough about me!  Here are some fun five month Peyton facts:

  • She is 23" and probably 13 1/2ish pounds... Not sure on the weight since she didn't have to go to the doctor, yay!  (Side note, I should probably just get a scale!)
  • She is still wearing size 1 diapers!  I know last month I said she would be moving up... But, I ended up waiting.  I did finally order the 2's so once she is done with this box, she will be moving up a size.
  • She wears 3 month and 0-3 month clothes.  Yes, the 0-3 are on their last cycle through.  She is growing out of her 3 month sleepers, so I get to do some shopping!  :)  Lucky little lady gets a brand new wardrobe ever 3 months!
  • She has come to love her monster (our dog)... Particularly, she loves to pull his hair... Poor dog.
  • She is so much more interested in her toys and everything else.  If she can grab it, she will.  If she can't she will try any way.
  • Everything she grabs goes straight to her mouth... She has even tried to eat the dog's hair!
  • She is a rolling machine!
  • She can sit up pretty darn good!  Such a strong little girl.
  • Speaking of strong, we got her a bouncer which she just loves.  She would probably bounce on our laps or in the bouncer all day if she could.
  • She wants to crawl but can't quite figure it out.  It is pretty cute to watch her try, until she gets frustrated.
  • Sophie is still one of her favorite toys.
  • She really recognizes Mom and Dad.  She always gives us big smiles. She gets super excited when Paul gets home from work... Super cute!
  • She loves fishes!! We probably have to get her an aquarium now.
  • She sleeps through the night at least twice a week!
  • LOVES bath time.  She splishes and splashes like crazy.
Like always, here are some of her 5 month birthday pictures!
