Makayla Jo | Five Months | August 9, 2012

Like every month, I'm late on this post. Seriously? Time can slow down now. I can't believe how fast the past month has flown by. I can't believe the M is already five months (going on six here!). She is growing daily and is getting so big. You are the love of my life and you bring so much joy to our family little girl.

Here's a look back at her monthly updates:

• 1 month
• 2 months
• 3 months
• 4 months

Height: unknown
Weight: No idea girlfriend, but at your last Dr. Appt for your ear infection at the end of July you were 13 lbs. I'm estimating 14 lbs or so.
Head Circumference: unknown
Clothes: squeezing you into some 3 month outfits, but for the most part you are in 6 month clothes.

Feeding
You are still eating 5-6 ounces every 3-4 hours, but we have been giving you about 1 tbsp of rice cereal every evening around 5:30-6:00 p.m. You seem to love it and we plan on introducing you to sweet potatoes, carrots and peas within the next week or so.

Personality
You are such a happy baby. Seriously. I don't know how we got so lucky. You NEVER cry. It's more like a fake whine but that hardly ever happens unless you are really hungry. Your personality is so carefree and easy going. Everyone loves to be around you. You are one of the best babies in day care!

Play Time
You are still loving your Jumperoo. You are still enjoying your PlayMat as well. You got some new toys this month including paper crinkle books, some blocks, and some more teething rings. You love to play! You also have learned to love to play in your crib in the mornings while I get ready for work. Your favorite thing right now is eating your toes.

Teething
No teeth yet, but still lots of drool.
