Five month stats (P)


Presley is five months old!
Here's what she's up to:

- She growls when wants to be heard.
- Has discovered her voice & won't let us forget it. 
- Loves the Bumbo now, but just like with all things (in moderation). 
- Still loves kisses. I swear, she'll never get sick of them (I hope).
- Is consistently eating 6 ounces every 3 hours on the dot.
- Does the funniest thing… She takes a nap @7pm (an hour before her bed time). It's the weirdest thing!
- Loves (and I mean LOVES) her big sister, Jovi. 
- REALLY likes kicking in the bath tub. 
- Still sleeps in our room (mainly because I'm not ready to move her to the nursery, and because we haven't moved Jovi to a big girl bed).
- Sleeps real well (from 8pm-7am) every day. Not a light sleeper either. 
- Sucks in her bottom lip ever so cute, when talking. 
- Likes laying on the living room floor, watching movies. 
- Holds onto more toys, rattles, and teething rings now. (Seriously, her pack & play is FILLED w/those). 
- She doesn't really do much. I haven't decided if she's a lazy baby, or a content baby. 
- She has to have the blanket pulled up by her face, whenever she sleeps. It's so sweet. 
- Likes her stroller & being pushed in it for walks. 
- Isn't fond of the sun. 
- And can put herself to sleep, if she has her pacifier in her mouth.
