What She's Been Up To

When Liza was 4 months old it seemed she had begun to change on an almost daily basis. Having made it through the fog of the first few months, I actually had it in me to write these changes down in my journal.  Now, at 5 months, the list is even longer.  Thought you might like to know what we've noticed about our girl.  

At 4 months...
*babbling
*laughing some
*licking her feet
*sleeping through the night, mostly
*sleeping with one arm outside her swaddling blanket
*thinks her daddy is absolutely hilarious
*wants to see everything, always faces out in the Moby
*loves to be outside
*beginning to notice the dogs

At 5 months...
*sleeping in a sleep sack with both arms free
*loves going places, even seems to enJOY the car for short periods now
*totally enthralled with the dogs, especially Penny - reaches out to pat her every chance she gets and giggles when she gets licked
*still loves to suck on her toes, especially the right ones
*laughing much more often
*lots of shrieking and squealing
*loves bath time
*rolling from her back to her tummy...still a little confused about what to do next
*showing lots of interest in what we're eating
*will grab for anything within her reach
*likes to sleep on her side, top hand hanging onto her crib bumper

One of My Favorite Sounds

When she wakes up from her nap and she's talking to the fan, or the ceiling, or the pictures on her wall, or her toes. She doesn't know I'm listening, but I can hear her on the monitor, and it's just so sweet.

Party Girl

Liza enJOYed her first 4th in style with a festive bib (Thanks, Rick & Sharman!) and a cute madras dress (Thanks, Charlotte!)
Mama got a break since there were lots of willing arms to hold her :-)
