5 Months!

Today Alice is five months old! We can hardly believe how quickly it's gone. She is just our favorite and were a bit obsessed with her. Being a parent can be difficult at times, but we are so in love and just thrilled we get to have her in our family forever. 

She is a petite little thing and was 27% for height and 5% for weight at her 4 month check up. The pediatrician said she looked healthy but it was probably time to start her on solids (baby food). We started with some rice cereal and veggies the week of Thanksgiving and she was a bit skeptical at first, but now she loves eating everything. 

Ali is just so delicate and girly in everything she does. She is often crossing her legs (right over left) even when standing and sometimes when sleeping. Her cry is so girly and darling, sometimes we have to watch her for a few seconds before getting her. 

She is a busy bee and now rolls both ways as wells as scoots in her bum around the floor. She seems to be squirming or moving at all times, and loves to be standing as much as possible. Ali is a great sleeper and sleeps 12 hours every night, which is the best! She usually goes to bed around 7 PM and wakes up around 7:30 AM. She still naps about 3 times during the day.

She giggles and smiles all the time now and she is getting to be so fun. Lately, she's been a little more clingy and cuddly, but I'm okay with that knowing that she won't be like this much longer once she can crawl/walk. She is our little Ali Bug and we just love her!
