Miss Emma's FIVE month stats!

Weight: Don't know. Go to doctor next month for her 6 month appt! (hard to believe)
Length: LONG!
Hair: I think I may see a little coming in. Much lighter than Ryan's and may just be my imagination playing tricks on me.
Eyes: holding at blue, and a very pretty blue too!
Skin tone: Rosy cheeks! After spending time in the pool she got a touch of color on her cheeks! Eating: She is now eating 6 oz each feedings. She is down to 4 breast milk feedings a day (7:30 a.m., 11:00 a.m., 3:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m.). She now goes 13 whole hours overnight in between feedings! (I owe it all to Baby Wise!) Emma now eats three solid meals a day. A normal menu for Emma is: Breakfast around 9:30: oatmeal and bananas, Lunch around 1:00: sweet potatoes or peas, Dinner around 5:30: squash or green beans. I am so happy that she is such a good eater. She has also tasted ice cream, apple sauce and whipped cream. She loved them all!
Sleeping: Bedtime for Emma has moved even earlier. She nurses at 7 and is usually out like a light by 7:15. She sleeps in until 7:30 or 8 a.m. and usually naps from 9:30-11, and 1:30-3:30 or sometimes 4-5:30 depending on what we are out and about doing.
Size: 6-9 month clothes for length, she can fit into 6 month onesies and dresses, size 2 diapers (I still haven't had to buy any diapers! Or formula!- Emma is a cheap date!)
Likes: playing on her play mat with Ryan close by, gurgling and talking, Baby Einstein play station (she can really play with all of it now), bananas, stuffed animals, putting things in her mouth, watching Ryan do anything (even throw a fit!), snuggling lambie at bedtime, listening to books at bedtime with Ryan (she really pays good attention), swimming in her floatie, jumping in her doorway jumper, being held in my lap while I do any and everything, flirting with herself in the mirror
Newest Accomplishment: blowing spit bubbles (Ryan taught her) rolling and turning all over the place (if you leave her for a second she will be on the other side of her playmat or upside down in her crib!), playing with toys on her belly, trying to figure out how to get her paci back in her mouth when she is on her belly, her feet both touch in the horse and the Baby Einstein play station, she has found her feet and likes to hold onto them and roll around


She flips over in the blink of an eye!
Sweet Punky girl

Always smiling





Loves her lambie!





I still have skis for feet!

In no time at all she will be crawling!

Emma LOVES playing with Ry

Waiting patiently for lunch

Everything goes in her mouth













Holding her bottle by herself! (only happened once!)

Two sweethearts!



Emma loves to look at herself

Love her so much!

Spit bubbles!





Ryan saves the day with paci!
