Our Baby Girl is 5 Months!

Julia Ba-dulia...

At 5 months old, you're really starting to support yourself sitting up.

You still LOVE your brother.  He can get good belly laughs out of you and if you're in a bad mood, we just ask Frankie to act silly and you're puddy in his hands.  I love watching you watch him.  I can see the amazement and adoration in your eyes and hope it never fades.

You join Frankie and Mommy in our 'dance parties'.  While we dance around the living room like lunatics, you sit in your swing and kick your legs like crazy, laughing and smiling with at us.

Your little legs are getting the cutest pudgy rolls.

We just introduced you to the jumper which you enjoy...for about 15 minutes.  Your overall attention span doesn't last much longer than that no matter what you're doing.

You've started joining us at the table for dinners in your high chair, which you're not the biggest fan of.  I imagine once there is food on the tray, you'll come around, though.  Speaking of food, you are a grabber!  If you're on my lap while I'm eating, look out!  My plate has almost ended up in my lap on several occasions.  Not to mention the countless times your hand has ended up in my food.

You are the sweetest, happiest, most talkative little baby girl with a smile that lights up the room...and my heart.
