Milestones

Why does time pass us by so quickly? I still don't know how we are already into Kailyn's 5th month of life, but we are! And she is really starting to develop and do lots of new things. The past few weeks have been so much fun.

Kailyn had just turned 5 months old and had been eating cereal and oatmeal for the past month. Time to try baby food! Gran Gran had come over for dinner and wanted to do the honors. She had Sweet Potatoes and Corn...and ate it all up. Now, we still have to watch her schedule and not wait until she is starving to do the baby food, but other than that, she eats great every time.
YUM!!!

All of the sudden, Kailyn was ready to start practicing sitting up. Mommy let her use the Boppy pillow for support while she played toys.
Big brother, Caleb thinks this new milestone is fantastic! He get so excited when it is time to play toys with her. He loves Kailyn so much and it makes Mommy so happy to see him interact with her and bring her toys.
This little girl just loves to play toys :)
And lounge sometimes too, of course!

The next morning, we were practicing sitting up again and she did not need any help!! Mommy did not know whether to laugh and praise her or cry because she looked so grown up sitting in the floor playing. She still needs someone right there with her, as she still wobbles a lot. But she can sit up for about 45 seconds to 1 minute before falling!
Earlier in the week, Kailyn found her toes. She loves to stick her legs straight up in the air and grab her toes, sort of like a toy that she can always find. It is pretty cute. This afternoon, she had woken up from her nap in the swing and started playing right away.
Caleb saw Mommy taking pictures and hurried over to his toy basket to grab his camera too!!
Yes, Tuesday was a BIG day, but it gets even better...Mommy decided since Kailyn was doing so well sitting up that morning, that she would let Kailyn test out sitting up in the shopping cart at Publix like a big girl. She was a pro!! She did get a little lazy towards the end and started leaning, so Mommy put her purse beside her and that helped give her a little more support. The days of Kailyn's pictures in the polka dot car seat might be ending because she loves being up and about!
