Dani - 5 Months Old

It's hard to believe that Dani is 5 months old already! Here's some updates on what she's been up to...

Growing: Dani is getting so BIG! We've had to move her to 12 month pajamas and she's outgrown quite a few 6-9 month outfits.  Thankfully she still fits quite a few of them that she still fits since most of the 12 month clothes we had from Michaela were fall clothes.

Moving: She can roll all the way over from front to back or back to front and uses a little 'scoot' to help between those to move herself anywhere she wants to go.  I can't count the times I'll put Dani down on the rug and come back 2 minutes later to find her across the room (usually chewing on something other than her toys).

Eating: We successfully had baby cereal from a spoon this week!  I'm so excited because Dani was getting to the point where she was eating up to 40 oz. of formula a day just to fill up!

Schedule: Dani is one of those great babies who goes on a schedule really easily, but is very flexible to having us change it on her.  Right now she 4-5 times per day, takes a 1-3 hour morning and afternoon nap and sleeps 12 hours straight through at night.  Michaela had a very similar schedule at this age and I know I've been very blessed that Dani is so easy going as well.  

Personality: As she gets older and is able to do more her personality is coming through more and more.  Dani is a very happy and easy going baby, unless she needs something (i.e. food, diaper change, nap, snuggle...) but even then she's quickly back to her happy self once her current need is met.  She just adores her Daddy and big sister Michaela and will watch them with a smile on her face as they walk around the house.
