5 months

5 months old already!
New things for you:
You just sampled your first rice cereal and you even swallowed some on the 2nd day we tried.
You are sleeping unswaddled.  You were getting just your hands up and out of your swaddle and then scratching your face up so we decided to give you 3 nights to try unswaddled sleeping-and you did great!  We think you were ready for the freedom to move.
You got your first tooth!  What a night that was.  We were so excited to feel a harder bump in your mouth and know why you had been so fussy and not taking naps that day.  We gave you tylenol and you slept for 4 hours at a time all night, just waking up for some more tylenol.
Since you are SO tall-you are already in 6-9 month clothes.  Oh my, little one!
No rolling over yet...
You can sit for a few seconds before you lose your balance.  You do pretty well if you are a little supported, though.
We love getting you to laugh and giggle.  You love when we put a sheet over your face and play peek-a-boo.  You get so excited when we wiggle our fingers above your face.  You like to laugh at your toys, especially when you are just by yourself and not being pestered loved by your parents.

Good luck with the teething, we haven't made it there yet! We just tried rice cereal though and she loved it! Fun, fun :)
