5 months

McKenleigh is 5 months old Monday. Wow, where has the time gone? She is doing so well. She has the sitting up thing down, and now we are working on crawling. Here is her version of crawling for now.

It works well and she get anywhere she want to. She will reach for me or Jason if she wants us and it is so fun. When Jason gets home from work he comes in and as soon as she realizes daddy is home she smiles and waves her arms. She loves her daddy.
She has also decided the dog is on of the neatest toys in in the world. She will smile every time she sees the dog, even if she is across the room. When the dog is close, she tries everything to pet or eat her. It is so fun watching them. Today McKenleigh decided the dog's toy looking like fun and every time she got near it, would try to chew on it. What a funny girl. I am truly amazed at how you can put hundreds of dollars of toys in front of her, but all she wants is the door stop or your shoe. The next few months are going to be fun.

She is slowing growing out of her hatred for the car seat. For the past 2 months EVERY time I put her in the car, she cries the entire time. She would cry for 20 min, and it was a mad, very loud cry. Now that we have discovered toys, she is not enjoying the car seat, but she will tolerate it for a few min. and play.

We are still getting the wonderful comments of "she is so perfect", "she is so tiny", "she looks like a little doll" and "what a beautiful little girl". It is so much fun. We think she is wonderful, but it is also fun for others to tell us as well. She really is a happy baby and we are having so much fun watching her grow and learn. We are blessed.
