5 Months Old

Today, Ellie is 5 months old. I can't believe it! So, I wanted to brag on some of the things she can do now:

1. She can roll from her tummy to her back, and her back to her tummy.
2. She smiles a lot!
3. She's teething....man, is she ever!
4. She weighs over 14lbs now.
5. She is starting to wear size 2 diapers as of TODAY!
6. She is wearing 3-6 month clothing now.
7. She takes a short morning nap and a longer afternoon nap for my sanity.
8. She can sit up assisted.
9. She can play in a jumper.
10. She's eating rice cereal.
11. She can scooch on her tummy to get to places.
12. She knows what her tongue is and can play games with her daddy.
13. She squeals, makes bubbles, and makes pooting sounds with her lips.
14. She reaches for items in front of her, especially her parent's faces and her mommy's hair.
15. She raises herself up on her tummy with her arms.
16. She LOVES to look at herself in the mirror and smile.
17. She splashes in the bathtub and picks up toys with her legs.
18. She now plays a game of "Where's Ellie?" with her burp cloth (see video below)
