5 months?

How did we get here?? Annie turned 5 months today and we are both in awe. This month has flown by as we have settled into our new home and become more familiar with our surroundings!

Annie is up to lots:
Singing often. (She wakes us up in the wee morning hours singing in her crib)
Smiling and reacting to peoples' smiles
Being very aware
Taking 2 naps
Loves the water on her feet at the beach and in our wee pool.
Rides in the stroller facing out
Sleeps from 7pm- 530am (praise!)
Had rolled over twice!
Doesn't despise tummy time
Loves patty cake
Loves this little light of mine
Has the best giggle and belly laugh 
Loves grabbing her toes 
Still loves kisses and likes to give them back with a wide mouth and lots of slobber
Playing more independently. 
Teething

We don't have a weigh in this month but we would guess around 16 pounds, and she has definitely lengthened out some. We started wearing 6 month clothes after our 4 month check up. 

In other news, our stuff had arrived! We are unpacking and making it more homey feeling. We definitely don't have enough room for all of it, so we have also rented a storage unit. Pics to come! 

Annie's month 5 pics!
First beach trip:
First time in a bathing suit
First walk in park near our house
Family fun!
Playing in the pool
Love the beach with daddy!
Sunglasses needed
Sleeping like a big girl- no more swaddles!
Loving our paci

Beautiful baby! [And hunky hubby ;)] Where are the photos of of the marvelous mama???

I am so happy y'all are able to start getting a bit settled, and it looks like you are taking full advantage of being where you are. I am just sitting here imagining you and little Annie doing all of the things you write about, like singing This Little Light of Mine, and I know you are such a wonderful mother. It makes me so happy. :)

(Also it makes me happy that you are exposing Annie to High School Musical at such a young age.)
