Brooklyn is 5 months

Happy 5 months to Miss Brooklyn!

Height: 26 1/2 inches 
Weight:  15 lbs  


Milestones:

- We are at a pretty consistent 11 hours of sleep per night and 3 naps a day (one nap is usually an hour and a half and the other two range from 30 min to an hour)

- She finally rolled over from back to tummy unassisted! She's only done it once but we'll take what we can get! She likes when you hold out your finger and she'll use it to help her roll over then once she gets on her tummy she'll look up at you until you clap and say "yay!" and only then will she smile.

- She sits up pretty well on her own but needs a little support. I can sit her up in my lap and only have to set a hand on her waist so she doesn't tip to the left or right.

-She's going through a phase where she's afraid of guys. At the end of year BBQ for the student athletes Daniel took her around and she smiled and grinned at all the girls and gave blank stares to the boys. Daniel and I are hoping that sticks around for about 18 more years.

-She likes to give "baby kisses" when you hold her up at your shoulder, she'll bury her face in your cheek/neck and slobber on you. She will then proceed to pull/poke/yank your hair, glasses, earrings, cheeks, teeth- if she can reach it it's fair game. Now I know why lots of moms have a baby then cut their hair short.

 
B's current favorite things are her exersaucer (she no longer presses the buttons but rather beats the living crud out of the buttons while squealing at the top of her lungs), her fisher price rock-a-stack (that plastic pyramid of stacking rings we all had as a kid), and her stuffed giraffe.
