Hazel is 5 months old!

Here is Hazel at 5 months old!
  • She weighs 13 lbs. 14 oz. (20th percentile).
  • She is in size 2 diapers.
  • She is in 3-6 month clothes.
  • She is up and down with sleeping through the night. She got an ear infection this past month, right after her cold was gone. And, we traveled for Christmas. So, between being sick and not being home, she hasn't really had consistent sleep arrangements.
  • She is currently sleeping in her rock n play.
  • She is still swaddled when she sleeps at night.
  • She still doesn't take a paci, so I'm giving up!
  • She is getting so good at standing up on me when I hold her. Her little legs are getting strong!
  • She still doesn't love tummy time, but will hang out for longer periods of time.
  • She smiles a lot like Everly did - more close mouthed than open. It's the sweetest smile though!
  • She is still pretty quiet. Sometimes, I can get her to giggle a little bit, but mostly, she is just a quiet baby. Of course, in this house, it's hard to get a word in!
  • She still doesn't love to be held by too many people. I have yet to be successful leaving her in the nursery at church or in her class at MOPS. At MOPS, she screamed for 15 minutes straight until they called me and it took her about 30 minutes to calm down while nursing. Poor little Hazel!
  • She had a really good Christmas! She slept, she ate, she hung out. 
  • She's starting to put things into her mouth and still especially loves my fingers!
  • She still gives sweet, open mouthed kisses when I try to kiss her! 
  • She will also reach her toes up to her mouth when she is on her back.
  • We've started putting her in the bumbo on the counter. she will hang out for a little while. None of my kids have loved the bumbo, but she likes it so far. 
  • She got her first two teeth this past month. They are the two on the bottom; and she drools a lot!
  • She can sit up assisted. I will usually put her on her bottom and sit behind her in case she falls. But, she will sit and grab for and play with toys until she topples over. 
  • She pushes up on her stomach really well, but would rather just roll over onto her back.
  • She lights up when I sing to her the song "If You're Happy and You Know It".
  • She is loved by every sibling and is just the sweetest baby!
