5 Months

Likes

Baths, her grandparents, touching anything, sucking anything, being thrown up in the air, looking in the mirror, being tickled, Mickey Mouse, swinging in her swing or at the park, being outside, going on walks, holding the bottle, having mom stand while holding her, eating baby food… especially sweet potatoes, looking at Daddy through Facetime.

Dislikes

Church… it’s like she knows we are supposed to be quiet… those are a rough three hours each week, riding in the car, sitting still, taking naps.

Other than the newborn stage, I think this has been my most favorite stage so far. Eva is getting so fun, she even keeps me company while T.J. is gone. She is quite energetic and loves to always be moving and doing something new, so even though it’s a lot of work, her cuteness makes it all worth it.

She keeps getting chubbier and chubbier, which I’m 100% okay with. She is now 17 pounds and her thighs are as chunky as ever.

If you don’t watch Eva’s every move, she’ll pull your plate right off the table, grab the petals off of a flower, or shove the diaper right into her mouth (all happened this week).

I can’t believe Eva is almost a half a year old. I love that little girl!
