Five Months

Layla was 5 months old on May 31st! Her aunt Sarah was here for the occasion. We had a fun weekend with parties and bratfest and her first visit to the farmer's market at Hilldale. In milestone news, she loves tummy time now that she can roll (and roll and roll) and grab her toys. She is very close to sitting up and maybe even scooting! In the bathtub, when she was already on an incline, she leaned forward, and kind of met in the middle and was pretty much sitting up! It will be any time now. I can't believe how she has grown. We visited Aubree who is 5 weeks old and so tiny, I can't believe Layla was ever that small. At her 4 month checkup (the month flew by that fast?!!) she weighed 13 pounds, 9 ounces, and was 24 3/4 inches long. That's almost 6 1/2 inches and 6 1/2 pounds more of each than when she was born! She still has her ornery times, I think some babies default mode is quiet, and Layla's is mostly to cry, but it is getting better every day. She sleeps in her playpen next to the bed, and we have had several 6, a few 7, and even a couple of 8 hour nights!
