5 Months

Bailee is now 5 months old.  Holy Cow!!  She is such a good baby.  She rarely cries unless she is hungry, poopy, or her brother and sister are teasing her.  She came with me to soccer registration a couple weeks ago and layed on a blanket on the floor and played with toys and talked to people for 3 hours without making a fuss.  Thats my girl! 

She loves to sleep and I can just swadle her up, lay her in bed and she will go right to sleep.  She typically naps for 2-3 hours in the morning and 3-4 in the afternoon and then sleeps from 8pm-8am. 

She eats about 5 or 6 7-8oz. bottles each day and occassionally some baby food. 

Her favorite toy is her rings, but she still loves her swing too. 

She is finally rolling over, both ways.  I think she rolled for the first time from her back to her tummy on April 6th.  She is getting so strong on her tummy and I'm so afraid she is going to start crawling.  Cole was 6 months and I'm praying its not that soon, I'm not ready for a mobile baby! 

Starting to wave.  I'm not sure its entirely purposefull yet, but usually it is at Matt when he gets home from work or when she is going to bed.
She has had 2 ear infections in the last month and she's not a happy camper when that happens.  I usually know if she's not sleeping at night and doesn't want a bottle that that is the case.  If she gets one more before she's 6 months old the Dr. wants to put tubes in her ears. 

Also is a big time daddy's girl.  One night I could not get her to go to bed.  I'd fed her, changed her, rocked her, she just would not go to sleep.  Finally, Matt took her and she drank a whole bottle from him and went right to sleep.  Guess she just didn't want mom.

If I could have babies that were this good and I didn't hate pregnancy so bad I'd have a dozen kids.
