Eve is {5 months}

Height- ?? inches
Weight- 13 lbs. 

Eve Louise!
Every single month with you is more fun. Your little personality is starting to blossom, and we are seeing more of your own little person appear. 

At five months old, you...
  • don't like having a dirty diaper. This is so different than Lawson. I remember that he could have cared less, but you freak out when you're dirty.
  • sometimes hate the car seat. That's gotten tricky this month. Sometimes you are over tired and have a hard time falling asleep, other times you just don't want to be in there.
  • are so barfy and spitty. 
  • light up when we look at and talk to you. Especially the boys!
  • sleep like a champ. Bedtime is 7:30/8 (unless we're not home, then it is whenever) and you sleep a pretty solid 12 hours on your belly. Sometimes we have to go in and give you your paci, but Daddy and I take turns doing that so it never seems that bad.
  • nap intermittently, and sometimes fight it when you're really sleepy. You sometimes nap in your crib (on your tummy) and sometimes in the Rock & Play in our room (ok, closet). 
  • like to grab hair, faces, toys, anything you can get your hands on. 
  • love having a blanket or lovey to hold and put over your face if you're sleeping on your back (R&P, car seat).
  • didn't want the bottle the couple of times we left you with one (once with Ashy and once with Daddy), but eventually came around.
  • are stilly a bitty little thing. I took you in for a weight check because I was afraid you weren't gaining enough, but you are right on track. Just a peanut :)
  • do not laugh a lot. We get giggles out of you here and there, but you seriously make us work for them!
  • poop out of every single diaper. Seriously, if you poop, it gets all over your clothes (and stains!!). So annoying. I miss cloth diapers.
  • don't really love to be reclining (like in the bouncy seat). You definitely prefer to be upright like in the bumbo and exersaucer. 
Eve, you are our delight.
