5 months old!


WOW! I can't believe Caitlyn is already 5 months old! How the time has flown by! Caitlyn has grown so much in the past month. We experienced our first ear infection a few weeks ago. It was NO fun! Caitlyn also went to the doctor for her 4 month well check up (a little late because of the ear infection). She weighed 16 lbs. 8 1/2 oz. which is in the 90th percentile. She is 26.5 inches long, in the 95th percentile. Her head is 16 in., in the 50th percentile. Caitlyn has learned a few new tricks in the past month too. She can roll from her back to her front AND her front to her back. She doesn't do either very often, but she's done both a few times. Daniel and I finally got to hear her laugh out loud too. She doesn't do that very often either, but when she does, it the sweetest thing I've ever heard. Her favorite activity right now is jumping. Yes, thats right, jumping! We have a jumper that fits in the door frame and she LOVES it! I will have to post a video soon. It's so cute! She's babbling and smiling all the time. We also have discovered that she can do the tri-pod. Basically she is sitting, but propped up with her hands in front of her between her legs. She's pretty good at it, but still has a little ways to go before she'll sit up on her on. We have also eating baby food! She seems to enjoy sweet potatoes and we still aren't sure about green beans. I'm sure I've forgotten something, but I'll have to write about it later!







This is her tri-pod!
