FIVE months!

I seriously feel that I JUST did Addy's four month post.  This month has flown by.

Here are a few things about Addy at 5 months old:
-She loves to giggle for her Daddy.  It's very sweet.
-She's quick to smile and giggle for you, after she's warmed up a bit.  Once she has gotten used to you, if you flash her a smile, she'll flash one right back. :D
-She adores her brother.  He loves to sing her songs and read her books and she pays very close attention.
-At 4.5months old, she weighed 13.2lbs and was 25.5 inches long.  That's 25th percentile for weight, 75-80th for height, and her head was 80th percentile(I can't remember the exact inches at this point.
-She's getting pretty good at rolling over, although still not consistently, which is totally fine by me.
-As previously mentioned, girlfriend LOVES her toes.  She had HALF of her foot in her mouth sucking away the other day. It was pretty hysterical. 
-Her hair had just gotten a little too insane, so she had her first little hair cut yesterday (more on that later).
-We've decided to delay starting her on solids for at least another month.  Her skin is finally getting somewhat under control after I cut out dairy, so we want to see if her sensitivities will go away a bit before introducing other potential allergens.  Plus, she's just not that interested in solids or watching us when we eat, so I figure why rush it.  It's funny because I knew Liam was totally ready for solids at 4.5 months and I can tell she's just not.  They definitely each have their own little personalities.
-She has found her voice and loves to screech and sing and talk to us.  I just love it.

Happy 5 months, Addy! We love you to pieces.
