Eliana you are 5 months old!!!
-You are still wearing 3-6 month clothing, with some 6 months
mixed in.
-You are still wearing a size 2 diaper, but I’m not sure how much longer that
will last.
- I’m not sure how much you weigh now. I would guess 15 something.
- I also don’t know how long you are right now.
-You are still refusing to take a bottle. I sound like a broken record when it
comes to that.
It’s gotten to the point that we don’t even try very often…although
we probably should.
- You have eaten rice cereal and avocado. The first time you had
the rice cereal was July
14th. You didn’t complain or fuss, but you
weren’t really sure what was going on. You were
pretty messy after it. You also
liked playing with the spoon. We took some with us to a
restaurant a few days
later, and you did great! You seemed to actually eat more than you
spit out
that time. You’ve only tried avocado a couple of times, and I’m not sure if you
like
it or not. We will keep trying! It was hard for me to give you solids for
the first time. Prior
to that, all of your nutrition had come from me, and I
wasn’t ready to give that up.
Honestly, I’m still struggling with it.
- You can roll from your back to your belly now! You started
doing that on July 16th. You
can roll from your stomach to your
back, but you forget that you can. I think you prefer to
be on your belly
anyway.
- You have also started reaching for people if they reach for
you first. I love it!!!
- My favorite thing that you do is give us kisses! They are
quite slobbery, but oh how I love
it!
-You still go to sleep almost every night without any problems! We did Ferber you one
night (7-20-12). You kept rolling over on your stomach as soon as we would put you in bed,
but it would make you mad. It took about 4 trips into your room at increasing intervals
before you finally went to sleep. I rarely hear you cry like that. It was pretty hard on
Mommy.

-You are still sleeping through the night! You make Mommy
nervous though because you
have started rolling over on your belly in your
sleep.
- You have gotten better about riding in your car seat, except
for the last car ride of the day.
I’m not sure how, but somehow you know when
it is the last ride of the day. You tend to
pitch a fit unless we play our Adele
cd. Usually if we play Adele you will calm down and fall
asleep.
- It cracks me up how much attention you get when we go places. You love
smiling at
people! You wanted to be the center of attention at the baby shower I threw for my friend
Lindsey (7-15-12)!
Lindsey (7-15-12)!
- I still think you are teething, but I don’t see any teeth,
yet.
-We are still working on turning your head to the left. At your 4 month appointment,
Dr.
Adams noticed that you still had a pretty bad head tilt, and you didn’t
turn your head as far
to the left as you did to the right. You are slowly
getting better. We try to put your toys on
the left and get people to stand to
the left so you have to turn that way to see them.
-You like toys even more now!
- You still love your burp cloths.
- You still like to suck on your fingers, but you have also
found your thumb.
-You still love to be held.
-You still enjoy diaper changes but not as much as you did,
which makes me a little sad.
-You still get the hiccups quite a bit.
- Your right tear duct is still clogged. That poor little eye
runs a lot!
- You got in a pool for the first time on August 4th.
You really seemed to like it, but it was a
little too cool to stay in it for
long.
- You started dropping toys on purpose on July 18th. Yay for learning and developing!
-You like looking at and holding books...which makes this momma happy.
- You make one particular face that Daddy and I call the "crinkle nose." We love it!
