5 months old!

2 weeks late! How can we have a 5 1/2 month old!?

Molly Caroline is such a happy, content baby! She is so much fun! I love the age that she is! 

She loves to look at herself in the mirror. She laughs and smiles so big.

She loves children. They come near her and she lights up with excitement!

She still isn't crazy about rice cereal. She has had a bite or two of applesauce. I figured she'd love it since I craved apples  while I was pregnant...but I was wrong.

She rolls over.

She loved to stand up. All the time.

She likes her exersaucer. 

She loves to kick the piano keys on a mat at Mrs. Pam's. 

She loves her car seat pull toys that rattle. Her Jacques and Sophie too.

She reaches for everything. Toys, phones, jewelry. She loves my sparkly watch.

She started touching our faces. Be still my heart!

She scrapes/feels everything. I love to hear her scrape the seatbelt while I'm driving.

She talks nonstop. Especially at night. 

She wears bibs a lot because she drools so much. We thought she would already have teeth...but still none!

She still eats 4 oz per feeding and sometimes 5 at night.

She is still sleeping through the night. She goes to bed early, but rises early too!

I love to be there when she first wakes up from the night or a nap because you just look her way and she gives the biggest smiles. Then if you walk near her she gets so excited and kicks her legs!

She makes the sweetest sound when she sees her bottle.

She hears me when I pick her up from the babysitter and starts looking all around. Melts my heart!

She went to her first pumpkin patch!

She was a Pumpkin and a Ladybug for her first Halloween!

She sleeps unswaddled now. She loves to put her hands above her head like her daddy!

Her little high pitched squeal of excitement is our favorite!

We love her belly laugh when you tell her "I love you, I love you, I love you" really fast!

Molly Caroline, you are a joy! We are grateful for every second we have with you. We cherish everything about you!
