Arbor Victoria- 5 months old


Age: 5 months

Height: 26 1/4inches 

Weight: 14lbs 2oz 

Milestones: Sits un-supported for a good min or two without falling to one side or the other. If she's reclined she will bring her self forward. Not rolling over yet. Can bring Paci to mouth. VERY vocal!!! 

Sleep: She's my daughter that would never sleep if I didn't make her!! :( haha. She won't fall asleep if there is lots going on and def won't in my arms. She LOVES her bed (thank you BabyWise!!). She takes two 1.5-2hr naps and then some evenings a 30-45min nap depending on her crabbiness level! She goes to bed between 8-9pm and still wakes 1-2x at night. Nana and Daddy are better at getting her to go back to bed without a feed..but the minute she sees me it's the kind if cry that she does when she is "starving." Hahaha. She's a mess. She knows she's the baby so she's gonna play into it for all the days to come!! She still isn't over 15lbs yet so once she hits that milestone I'll do a little CIO. But she goes down for naps and bedtime without a fuss and puts herself right to sleep..so can't really complain!! <3

Best Moment: Her telling us exactly how she feels. She lifts her arms up when she wants you to pick her up. She's the sweetest.

Worst Moment: She still has a few tummy problems. I can really tell when I eat to much dairy or eat/drink caffeine. She will have an increase in toots, puke, and will be super agitated. Other than that she ks super chill. She will calm the second her big sis starts signing to her!!! 

Eating: We have just recently tried to transition to every four hours of eating during the day..she doesn't like it most days. She usually still eats every three hours. But every once and a great moon she will do fine with staying up longer and therefore be able to go longer in between feeds. 

Extras: She LOVES bath time, her big sis, stroller rides, exersuacer, her Daddy, elephant lovie, zebra rattle, and sitting up. Not a huge fan of rice cereal (we've given it to her a few times but it's not her fav just yet!), when the car stops, tummy time, and when she is ignored (she will scream and holler till she gets our attention).
