5 Months

Who knew 5 months could go by so fast! Josie is 18 pounds and 28 inches long! She is now squeezing into her 9 month clothes because the 12 months are just a little big. Josie has changed so much in one month. Her appetite has greatly increased! She loves pears, bananas, peas and oatmeal - she does not enjoy peaches, apples or cereal. She still spits up A LOT - but obviously it is not effecting her weight gain. She is sitting up better but still has the "wobbles." I am concerned that she is going to skip crawling because she refuses to spend anytime on her belly - and she spits up every time we put her on it. Still not turning over often - only by accident.
She smiles and blows bubbles and has the highest pitch squeals and laughs. She is trying so hard to talk and is a little parrot saying back to us the simple noises. We can see two pearly whites beginning to peak through those pretty little bottom gums. Her favorite toy is still the jumperoo and her teething fish- which is a must have! She is like Velcro - whatever she touches sticks to her and then puts it right into her mouth. Still sleeping all night and takes a long nap in the afternoon. She is trying to pull up and wants to stand rather than sit. She is so much fun now - I enjoy every moment with her!
