5 Months Old

Ava turned 5 months old on February 5...I can't believe it. (I think I say that every month). She has grown so much, both in size, attentiveness, and personality. She really is a happy baby, unless she is hungry or fighting sleep. She can sit up unassisted, it just isn't very straight yet, she holds her self up with her hands. She has started, just barely, to scoot. She can roll, both tummy to back and back to tummy, but doesn't really have a lot of interest in doing so. She would much rather do crunches and try to sit up on her own. She has the sweetest laugh (istn' that what all moms say?). She also, we have recently learned, loves to play with Nana's calculator, she will literally reach for it when she sees it and sit there playing with it until she is tired. Its really quite funny. My baby girl is growing up so fast. I love watching her learn new things and seeing the world through her eyes, but I hate the fact she is growing up....so bittersweet. She hit a growth spurt around this past month and grew overnight out of Newborn size clothes and diapers into 0-3 month clothes and size 1 diapers. Yep, you read it right, we have offically out grown Newborn clothes...at 4 and 1/2 months, I would say its about time. Oh, and we don't say this too loudly around her,  but she now has a double chin!!! :)
