Ideas and Goals

I read the Nesters blog or Instagram the other day about clearing out the clutter and I got inspired. As Baby stuff is taking over some of my living space I am having strong urges to purge. I am planning to clear out all the tchotchke, some will go into a bin to store because I'm not ready to part with it and some will go into a bin to donate or sell, which brings me to the next goal. One weekend this summer I want to pack up my collectibles and furniture I am no longer in love with or have a place for and I want to rent a table at an antique market! I want to play dealer for a day! I may even try to convince some friends to join me!

5 Months is the new 4 Months

Alright folks, I hope I'm not jinxing myself here but the general population was correct- it does get better! While I've read most people turn a corner at four months- I feel like it took C and I a good 5 months. I find our nights are getting better thanks to her rolling over to her side and tummy, she's really starting to play and man does she ever want to crawl. I started rice cereal this month to avoid gagging her with iron drops and it has been very fun! I am very excited for solids!

She loves:

Daddy daughter dancing

Playing Boo

Sophie

Getting cleaned up after eating

Twirling her hair

Her heavy sleep sack (Swaddle Designs zzzip me)

Her jumperoo

Holding the spoon when she eats

She Hates

Being left unattended (even safely)

Sleeping anywhere but on mommy during the day

Getting her diaper changed in public

Being awake in her car seat 

The five month photo shoot was so cute- I had to add a few more pics!
