Emma turned 5 months last Sunday! Yesterday we had her 5 month checkup. She is now 15lbs 9oz and 24" tall. The doctor said she is growing well and developing on track :)
Eating:
At this months visit the doctor suggested she start her solid food diet. I plan to make homemade food once shes done with her level one rice cereal and oatmeal. But for the most part she is still being exclusively breastfed.
Her first time trying rice cereal! She had no idea what to do with it. It just got all over her face. :)
Sleeping:
Her sleep is still the same as her 4 month update. We were away for a week so she was thrown off her average 4-5hrs straight sleep but ever since we got back she has been doing pretty good. She wakes up for the day at around 9-10am and takes about 3, 30-1hr naps. We put her to bed around 9-10pm.
Misc.:
This month she reached her milestone of turning from her back to her tummy! She turned from her tummy to back only twice but now every time i put her on her back she will go on her tummy! She also loves grabbing her toys and trying to put them in her mouth. She also found her thumb so she has been putting only her thumb in her mouth opposed to her hand. We don't let her suck on it though.
Also just like last month she has been so much more smiley and giggly. Its the cutest thing!
