5 Months and 1 day

It's been a little bit since writing, but not too much "new" stuff. We've been spending a lot of time with family for Christmas functions and such and she's had fun showing off, meeting new people and just being her usual cute self.

Her interest in food has not slown down. She's really figured out the whole cereal thing and instead of encouraging her to open her mouth each time so we can quickly shove the spoon in it's been a willing wide open mouth for each spoonful - even when there's none left! She has more than once requested a second helping of cereal...when Mom's said "All done!" she responded with a whining cry so we made her more and she downed it. So she's been pretty hungry, almost every night now she wants it.

She still hasn't rolled over, but trying harder and harder. She has come super close so many times but just misses that last little "oomf" to finish it off. Still not huge on her tummy time has slown down the rolling over as well...but she loves lying on her blanket with all her toys!

A new toy that she's gotten that she's been enjoying is her Jumperoo. Grandpapa got that for her for Christmas and she's had a blast. Still has not completely figured out the jumping part yet, more just playing with the toys on it...but every now and then you hear the music that plays when she starts jumping.

That's all for now I guess, we're still looking forward to going to the Mom and Tot's group again soon to see how much weight she's gained in the last month - it's been about a month since the last time that we went so we're all curious to see how much she's gained, we suspect a decent amount.
