5 months

Stats: about 15 lbs. I weighed her myself so it's not an exact weight. She will get weighed on the 26th for her 6 mnth appointment

Milestones:SLEEPING THROUGH THE NIGHT!!! more on that in a minute! Rolling from front to back and back to front (4.5 months), tried first cereal at 5 months

Behaviors: Elizabeth is SO busy! She talks, shreaks, and is constantly moving! She is way too busy to cuddle but loves to smile at mommy, daddy, and anyone else who talks to her. She is truly the happiest, sweetest baby! Every once in awhile she will will lay her head on our shoulder when she's tired (for about 20 seconds!) and it of course melts our hearts.

Sleep: PRAISE THE LORD! Elizabeth is sleeping 10 hours at night! About a week and a half before she turned 5 months we started unswaddling her at naps with one arm out. That night she slept form 8-6! So we did that for about a week then took the other arm out! She did great! Her naps are also starting to lengthen. They aren't the same every day, but they have gotten so much better. 

Clothes: 3 month and 3-6 month. 
Likes: Being naked, kisses on her neck, putting everything in her mouth, grabbing everything, including mommy's hair, after dinner walks with mommy and daddy, being tickled on her thigh and underarms, rolling everywhere

Dislikes: when a toy is out of reach (tough life!), cereal

Favorite Moments: Road trip to GA for cousin Will's wedding, Grandma and Aunt Anne coming for a visit, first fireworks, 4th of July trip to Nashville to see Aunt Anne, Papa, GiGi, Great Grandma Triplett, and Uncle Harrison and Aunt Maryn, first time to swim, nighttime Bible reading with daddy


Most Challenging: night time feedings till about 4.5 months ( mommy was ready to sleep through the night!)
