5 month olds are so much fun! Sure... I miss how teeny-tiny Isabel once was but the newborn stage was pretty rough and we had no clue what we were doing. We were pretty much on survival mode every day. But now that Bell is 5 months we are really enjoying things. She is so giggly, and smiley and inquisitive. She makes lots of strange noises and yells for no particular reason. This past week she discovered her feet and tries to put them in her mouth or hold onto them constantly. She has also started to grab for things and tries to take the water glass from my hands when I am drinking it. When we put her in her "Bounce Bounce Baby" (basically an exersaucer) she is fascinated by all of the toys and gadgets surrounding her. In fact, she looks so busy "multi-tasking" my friend nicknamed it her office. (Don't disturb Isabel when she is working in her office) Isabel doesn't mind being on her tummy now (as long as she isn't too full) but I am convinced she will never roll over. She doesn't seem to be interested in the least. She is also biting her teething rings, our fingers, and anything else that she can put in her mouth so maybe teeth will be coming soon? Finally, this past week she discovered that we have a dog living in our house named Lucky. She actually reached out and grabbed a handful of his fur tightly the other day. (poor poor guy- he is tolerating it) I am sure they will be BFF when she gets older :)
Yummy.... fingers
Hard at work in her "office"
Love those baby blues
