Scarlett tries out her new rounder yesterday!

Scarlett's Five Month Update

I want to apologize to anyone who actually checks this blog.  I haven't updated it in a very long time and Scarlett has changed so much.  Here are all the things she is doing.  At Scarlett's most recent doctor's appointment she was in the 70th percentile for both height and weight (which I'm sure you can tell from her pictures), which just means that she is in proportion, and the doctor told me to start her on solid foods.  She has now eaten cereals, veggies, and most of the fruits.  She loves fruits and veggies but, like her brother did, hates cereals.  We can't even get her to eat them mixed in with bananas.  She pushes the entire bite out with her tongue and won't eat until she gets formula.  Which leads me to her tongue.  She's "tongue-tied" and we're going to have it clipped...sometime.  She vocalizes all the time (Jerry swears she is saying "Mama" when she wants me but I know better) and has this pattern of singing very loudly right before she falls asleep, especially when we are driving in the car.  She is rolling all over the place so leaving her on the floor to play with toys is out!  Scarlett is also "creeping", so between that and the rolling, who knows where she is going to end up.  She is reaching for everything and when she gets it it goes right into her mouth.  Scarlett already has two teeth (both lower center on the same morning!) and more on the way, telling from the way she is mouthing toys and drooling!  Best of all, Scarlett LOVES Sawyer!!  She will watch whatever he is doing and laugh, which Sawyer loves.  All-in-all we have a very happy easy going baby.  Who could ask for anything more?  

Check out Sawyer signing "more" to her in picture three.  A future SLP?
