Five.

I was standing in line getting a Latte at work on Wednesday and the Barrista asked me how old my Baby is now. I started to answer "Four Months" until I realized what the date was March 25th! Holy Crap! Not only is she FIVE months old, I totally went through the whole day of 3/24 without once realizing it was her 5 month birthday...and for those who dont know me, that is very much unlike me. I am usually all over dates and birthdates (even the monthly ones)...that is a perfect example of just HOW crazy life has been for our family lately.



My sweet Audrey is Five Months old, hard to believe its already been 5 months, yet, hard to believe there was ever a time that she hasn't been in our lives. I just can't say enough how happy I am to have BOTH of my girls filling my house and my life with happiness, laughter, and endless joy (and maybe a few meltdowns here and there)



This month Audrey continues to blossom into a happy, outgoing little one. She is so quick to smile at anyone that will stop to say hello. She has developed this cute "baby talk", but everything she says sounds like she is shrieking in delight as if she is trying to say "YEEEEEAAHHH!!!!"



As you see from this picture above, she has a new accessory: a hair clip! This girls hair is out.of.control. Chad and I are always cracking up because her hair on the top of her head literaly stands straight up most of the time. I can't imagine how curly its going to be when she gets older, and with Brynn we made the mistake of never putting anything in her hair, and now she refuses to let us put anything in her hair, so I am starting as early as possible with Ms. Audrey so she will get used to it.

We have NOT started any foods yet. She is going to have to stick to the Boobie Juice for just one more month. There are a few reasons we waited, prob the biggest being I am not looking forward to having to deal with spoon feeding her, nursing is just too easy and convenient for me.



Lets see, whats new with Audrey. Well, she is sitting for longer periods, she has started scooting but only in her sleep so we will find her in all kinds of arrangements in her co-sleeper.

She LOVES the water. Loves loves loves. I can't wait to take her to Maui (ONE MORE MONTH!) and take her in the ocean!

She also likes to roll all over the place, She loves her excersaucer, loves checking out the trees, peoples faces, the dog.

She had her first Cold/Flu, poor girl, so we have had a rough couple of weeks here sleep wise, but she seems to be back on track the last couple of nights. We set up the pack n play in Brynns room, which will mean at some point we will want Audrey sleeping there, but I just don't see how that will work logistically. But its okay, everything will fall into place.

Aww, happy 5 months to your adorable, wild-haired girl!

(FWIW, I don't know how the "sharing a room" thing will work for us either...I am too chicken to try it).
