Rory- Five Months

Stats:
I am not sure what your stats are this month but we go back to the doctor at 6 months (next month) and will get things updated then.

Clothes: You are wearing a few things that are 9 month but for the most part you are wearing 12 month clothing.

Diapers: You are wearing size 3 diapers

Food: You are drinking 4-5, 5-6 oz bottles a day. You haven't been finishing your bottles lately and I think its because we have started solids. We jumped right in this month with some homemade baby food and a little bit of jarred food when traveling. You seem to be a savory over sweets girl and like your Butternut Squash, Avocado and Sweet Potato over Apples and Pears. You've tried carrots too but you didn't care for them. I can't wait to see what else you will like. Squash is BY FAR your favorite and you gulp it down. You eat the most at your dinnertime feeding but you like to try to eat a bit at breakfast and lunch too.

Sleep: You sleep from about 7pm- 7am give or take 30 mins on either end. HOWEVER, you have been wanting a bottle again in the middle of the night. You take your bottle and go right back to sleep, so for that, I am grateful. I don't know if it's a growth spurt or just 4 month sleep regression.

Likes: You love to splash in the tub, you love to not only taste for food but rub it on your face, you like to talk and scream and squeal, you really love your sister especially when she wants to hold you and snuggle up with a blanket, you like to play with Daddy's beard, you really like your jump-a-roo exersaucer, naptime, anyone smiling or talking to you, you like to ride and even nap in the Ergo Carrier (which is great because we use it daily)

Dislikes: losing your paci when you are trying to sleep, getting out of the tub, laying on your back too long, longer car rides

Highlights: Spending some time at the ranch with the Rush side of the family and spending a few days of Spring Break in Portland with some of the Miles side. You have found your toes which has become especially helpful for diaper changes when you hold your own feet up, haha. You can also roll both ways now front to back and back to front. You try really hard to sit up but can only hold it for a few seconds before falling over, you prefer to stand anyway.
