5 Months Old

Macy is enjoying her 5th month and we are enjoying her!! She is such an easy going baby...almost to a fault sometimes. She is so content to go along with the flow, I've realized I often neglect to meet her needs for good naps...so the only time she is not easy going is on nights when she is over tired. I am trying to find some balance with meeting the 'big kid's' needs and being sensitive to hers - even when she does not demand it. She is rolling over now -and soon to be all over the place (it is bittersweet to say goodbye to the immobile days :) ). She loves her feet, sucking on her lips and tongue (so cute), and she still tries to suck her thumb, but on the rare occasion that she gets it in her mouth she just chews on it. She loves to watch Madison and Brennan and enjoys a good walk in the stroller. She hasn't entered into the world of solid food yet - partly because I don't want to introduce the prep and clean up of that into MY life (gotta be honest), and partly because I am suspicious that she may have dairy issues like Brennan. So, I want to wait as long as possible to introduce foods. Prayerfully, I am wrong about the dairy, but it seems that when I have a lot of dairy in my diet she is more fussy. Here are some of her 5 month shots and a few that mom took of the kids.

This is a little Russian bonnet that I bought for Madison when we lived in Samara. I think it is so cute.
5 months and bright eyed. Some sweet shots my mom took of the kids.
