Sophie is 5 Months

Here is Sophie's list of accomplishments after five months. An additional comment regarding her hair style... I've been using gel in her fluffy hair to reduce the 'helmut head' appearance.

• 12 lbs., 10 oz. and 25” long.
• rolling from back onto belly (21 wks)
• holding the bottle and feeding herself (21 wks)
• rolling onto her side to reach for her soother or to watch the action (aka Emily) (20 wks)
• chewing on her toes (20 wks)
• sticking out her tongue, especially when happy or excited (19 wks)
• modeling wavy hair on the top of her head (19 wks)
• bouncing in the jolly jumper (19 wks) 
• screeching like cats fighting in a back alley (18 wks)

As a comparison, this is what Emily was doing at the five month mark.

• 12 lbs. 8 oz. and 24"
• giggling.
• trying to roll over from back to front.
• head-butting Daddy while trying to bite his nose.
• starting to make strange with the Grandpas and uncles.
• staying awake all morning, and having a nap all afternoon.
• loving the jolly jumper.
• using her elbows to push herself into a sitting position.
