5 month checkup

Well it has been a crazy week for me, so I am finally able to post about K's 5 month check up on Monday.
Weight: 14 lbs 12 oz (75th percentile)
Height: 24 1/2 inches  (50th percentile)

(on the scale at the doctors office)
I had to go alone with her, because Kyle had to work...I was a bit nervous on how I was going to do with the shots! BUT she took her shots like a little champ...she cried for about 30 seconds after she had them.  The rest of the night she was fine, she even slept for 12 hours straight!  Doctor Morrow gave us the ok for her to start solids, and to first start with veggies, then once we have done all of the veggies to start with fruit!

A little about Kiley at 5 months old:
*Sleeping...well she has decided to be like a newborn again, she sleeps for about 5 hours at a time during the night, waking up 1 or 2 times :(   This is such a change for her because at 4 weeks old she was sleeping through the night (for like 8-9 hours!)   But we are adjusting to her waking up in the night, and just hope for her to get back to her old sleeping habits :)
*Every day you can tell that she is growing and developing, she is grabbing for things, getting stronger at sitting (still can't do it on her own, but I think she is getting close!) 
*She still loves her baths!! 
*She is really starting to get her little personality!
*She smiles all the time and laughs! (SO CUTE!)  She also smiles with her eyes  (its adorable, they crinkle up when she is smiling)
*She loves her daddy!!
*She really does love going to daycare (which makes it so much easier to leave her every morning)  She smiles at Barb(the lady who watches her) the second she sees her!  She also has fun with the kids there.  Our friends, Chad and Mary have  a 3 year old, Lydia., who loves Kiley, and Kiley loves her.  It is so neat to see Kiley recognize, and smile at Lydia when she sees her!
Well that is just a little about our little princess <3    hope to update more soon!!
