5 Months

Really? 5 Months old already? I seriously can't believe it!
Little Miss Thang is already movin' and a shakin' way sooner than my other 2 and I can't figure out why she
wants to be so big already.
Maybe it's the 5 1/2 year gap she's trying to make up for or something.
Ugh! Stop it! Stay little!

So, here's her stats:
♥ 14 pounds
♥ 24 inches long

This past month she:
♥ can almost sit up from laying down
♥ rocks on hands and knees
♥ gets on toes, then face plants
♥ gets stuck under the couch and under my bed from scooting backwards
♥ puts everything in her mouth
♥ grabs plates, water bottles, hair, clothes...nothing is safe!
 If it's in her reach she's grabbing it!
♥ eats every 2 1/2 to 3 hours (10 minutes)
♥ 5oz formula bottle at night
♥ sleeps 7ish to 7ish (she's not always consistent and sometimes fights me till 8 or 9 then gets up at 5am)
♥ has had a constant runny nose for a month
♥ loves to smile, laugh, slobber, talk, and coo
♥ Naps 1 1/2 to 3 hours 3 times a day

I have forgotten how much work taking care of a baby was.
I'm exhausted everyday; more than I ever remembered before.
Maybe I'm just old.
Love her to pieces, but man oh man does she need a lot of attention!
