Evelyn: Four & Five Months

The past couple of months have been crazy, so I've decided to lump Evelyn's Four and Five Month updates into one!

Every day is an adventure with our little angel! She is growing and learning so much every day, it seriously amazes me!

She has figured out that she can easily get our attention by "coughing." :P

She has definitely found her voice and loves to make noise! 

She is so giggly and smiley. Very often, all I have to do to get a laugh out of her is smile at her!

She loves peek-a-boo. The other day, she was playing it with Ben. She was laying on her tummy on our bed next to him, and hiding her face on her arms, then popping her head up and grinning at him. :D

She has totally gotten the rolling-over thing down. Every time I set her down now, she automatically rolls onto her stomach. 

She can scoot around the room on her tummy to get to her toys.

When she goes down for a nap, she likes to have her binky and be covered by a blanket. 

Her four month checkup was on Dec. 13. The doctor said that she is very strong, and looks very healthy! He said to start her on solids, so we did! So far she has had rice cereal, carrots, and squash. The first time we fed her cereal was hilarious! She couldn't get enough!



She is very curious and inquisitive. She loves to touch things and she tries to get her hands on anything within her reach. If we are holding her close to the floor or near any type of object that seems interesting to her, she will try to dive out of our arms to get to it.

Although she is five months old now, she can still fit into some of her 3 month clothes. She also wears 3-6 month clothes.

She wears size 2 diapers.

She still loves bath time! She got some bath toys for Christmas, and has a blast with them. Every evening when we take her into the bathroom and start the water she gets so excited and wiggles all over the place!

She absolutely adores her Daddy! She lights up whenever he comes home or walks into the room. 

Her eyes are definitely brown like mine, but she has her Daddy's long eyelashes.

She can sit propped up on her hands, and is getting close to being able to sit without support. However, she usually dives to get to something whenever I try to have her sit by herself!

If she is sitting on the floor, and has a hold on my hands, I will lift them over her head and she can pull herself up to stand!

Her stats as of Dec. 13
Weight: 14 lbs. 2 oz 46th percentile
Height: 25.5 in. 80th percentile
Head Circumference: 16.25 in. 47th percentile
