5 months

I vowed when she was born to try my hardest to post a picture every month. Here it is 5 months later with only her 1 month picture missing. It's hard to believe that the months are flying by. Before I know it I'll be posting her one-year picture and blubbering like a baby.

She's rolling over tummy to back but still not back to tummy (yet, SO close!) Her bottom two front teeth have come in and I believe an upper front tooth is slowly on its way. She's developed a connection with the johnny jump-up and has figured out how to grasp and pull the toys off of her floor-mat gym. Her smiles are priceless. But even more so, are the looks of adoration that she gives her loving parents. It melts my heart to see her look up at Joe as if he's the most fascinating thing she's ever seen.

I feel blessed to say that the fussiness that filled the first few months is all just a memory now. She's generally a very happy little thing with the exception of those "wow, that tooth is really cutting through, that must be painful" moments. And who can blame her... wouldn't you scream if a tooth was ripping through your gums?!

I'm just loving every minute and praying that it goes by just a little... bit... slower... Please, Lord let me enjoy this sweet innocence for just a little while longer...
