Emme 5 months

October 24, 2016

 STATS
weight: 16 lbs
height: 25 in.
clothes: 6-9 months

EAT
Still nursing. Bottles here and there.
Emme likes to chew on cold apples and bell peppers.

SLEEP
Oh sleep, we do miss it around here.
I wish I could say that sleep has gotten better, but it hasn't. Napping still happens on me, but whatever, I don't mind the snuggles. Naps in the crib are 20-30 minutes max.
Bedtime is now 6:30 and sometimes Emme will sleep until 11pm, and other times she is up 3-4 times before 11. Then she's up about every 2-3 hours to eat.
One day we will all sleep again, right?

PLAY




Playing with her o-ball rattle

Emme can scoot backward (when she feels like it). She started out on the playmat.
She LOVES playing in her exersaucer!







SISTERS
These two LOVE each other so much! Emme's face lights up whenever she sees Charlee. Charlee loves to help with her and show her how to do things. Charlee also LOVES making Emme laugh and Emme LOVES laughing at Charlee.








MILESTONES
Rolling from back to tummy (all the time)
big belly laughs


LETTER TO EMME
Dear Emme,

Oh sweet little girl. I just love your snuggles, slobbery kisses, and big smiles that light up the room. You have the best laugh and love being tickled.

By far, your most favorite person is your sister. Oh my goodness, your face lights up whenever you see her. Everything she does makes you bust out in the biggest belly laugh. And she just adores you. Charlee always wants to be near you and make you laugh.

You are such a happy girl in the morning. You have the biggest smiles for daddy in the morning and will snuggle with him. The evenings, not so much. But you are the biggest sweetheart in the morning.

You're a big hair puller. You love to grab everything, especially my hair. Ouch! Crinkle books and your O-ball are some of your favorites.

I am in love with your hair! It is getting more and more curly every day. It's starting to get more blonde too. You and Charlee definitely have crazy hair, but yours takes the cake. I can't wait to see what it will look like!

Love you so much,
Mommy
