5 Month Highlights

*Her 5 month birthday celebration with scones & honey and a new book (How Do I Love You?-it’s become one of our favorites). We learned that hot scones melt wax candles (that’s the bottom of the candle).

*Jess learned to sit up on her own. As the month went by, she got progressively less dependent on the pillows we placed around her.

*We enjoyed a GREAT visit from my Alli, Steven & Evie! Jess loved having a little playmate.

*She moved from Bumbo to high chair at the table and starting to try new foods. She was and still is especially fond of apples.

*She started rolling from her tummy to her back and then from her back to her tummy. That picture is actually a video of her going back and forth (she just rolled one way then rolled back the other).

*Jess got more and more playful with her Daddy. Once she could be a bit more rough and tumble, these two have really had fun together.
