Emersyn at 5 Months

   Our little chunky monkey girl just turned 5 months old! We have been absolutely loving this little princess now for five whole months.  I don't know how it is even possible, but I swear we all fall more and more in love with her each day.  She just has the best little personality.  She is so smiley and loves to giggle and laugh.  She loves to take in new sites and sounds and is always just along for the ride.  Her sweet little face just lights up when she sees her siblings or cousins.  She really loves kids.
   She is chunky little thing especially when I compare her to how skinny Ashlyn was as a baby.  She sure likes her food and it is fattening her up well!  She now weighs 15 pounds!  Next month, we will be starting her on actual food.  I plan on spending the next few weeks making her homemade organic purees so I will be ready with lots of food when the time comes.  I have a feeling she is going to be a good little eater!
    Emmy is constantly showing us her new skills.  We have been working on sitting up.  She has the tripod pose down.  She is really good at holding herself up.  She has also discovered that she can roll to get where she wants to go.  She loves playing with toys and is very good at occupying herself.
    Sleep is still touch and go and while it could be better, it could be worse I suppose.  I'm not really going to say much more about that.
   I know in the coming months we will have lots of excitement when we introduce solids and I think she will be start crawling soon too.  We just love watching this little angel grow, thrive, and develop.  She is such a little doll baby!
       

Its not hard at all to get a smile out of this one!

She absolutely loves her activity chair.  Her favorite is to spin the keyboard.
