5 months has flown by!
Emery is developing such a fun little personality.
She is so smiley. She can't help it. Whenever someone even glances her way she gets all squirmy and can't help but smile or laugh.
She is finally liking her car seat. It makes it so much easier to go places now that she doesn't scream the whole time. She loves to play with toys while she is in there and can even look out and see Maddix.
We started sleep training her about a week and a half ago. It was pretty hard for me to allow this to happen, I was crying before I even laid her down to sleep. Eric was AMAZING and stayed out in the living room on the couch in a sleeping bag the first 4 nights. Emery has done pretty well. She usually goes about 8 hours and then I feed her and then she goes back to sleep. We still have a few nights where that is not the case, but compared to Maddix she is doing phenomenal! I just hope that she figures it out and starts sleeping completely through the night soon!
Emery also had her first taste of rice cereal a couple days ago. She is still pretty unsure about it but tries really hard to swallow it. It will be so nice when she starts eating cereal, vegetables and fruits! I love feeding babies food!
She is such a busy body. She has been rolling over for about a month and a half but just this last week she really figured it out and can't keep her still. She is constantly rolling from her back to stomach and stomach to back, over and over.
Emery Loves:
To have anything and everything in her mouth! Toes, toys, fingers, binky, everything!
To follow Maddix, Daddy and Mommy around. She can't keep her eyes off of Maddix and Eric.
To sit in her bumbo and bouncer and is learning how to use the walker. She can push it backwards and moves around the house.
Her silky and binky. I love that she loves those. When she gets tired all I have to do is put the silky up to her face and it usually calms her down.
To be tickled. She loves to laugh and it is so easy to get her going.
To be sung to. She loves patty cake and Itsy Bitsy Spider.
Emery Hates:
Getting dressed. Seriously still screams whenever something goes over her head.
Being left alone. I can't really leave the room without her noticing and then getting really upset. She has to be pretty distracted to not notice that I'm gone.
When she is tired and I try to make her stay up, even for 5 minutes. When she is tired, she rubs her eyes like crazy and usually doesn't stop until she is swaddled and can't reach them anymore.
Her 1st taste of Rice Cereal,
I think she thought we were poisoning her!
Day 3, still not so sure.
Can't keep much of it in her mouth.
People are constantly saying they look exactly alike.
Here they are at the exact same age.
What do you think?
Playing outside in her walker, we love that is has been so nice!
Hanging with her big brother!
We Love you Emery!
