Little Miss Sugar Pie Pumpkin Muffin

Oh Summer is growing so much each day and she is getting more and more lovable!
At 5 1/2 months she is:

  • Eating Rice Cereal mixed with fruit in the morning and night
  • Loves her bath and is splashing in the water
  • Talks alot! She is guaranteed to talk if you put something in her mouth; finger, spoon or bottle.
  • Smiles at you anytime you smile at her.
  • Goes to bed at 6pm, wakes up around 4am to have a bottle then sleeps for another 2 hours.
  • Takes at least one nap in bed each day and another in her car seat while we run around.
  • If the outlook indoors seems grey...take her outside. The girl loves to get out and about!
  • Has started to poopy more now that the food has increased - twice a day now.
  • Wears size 3 diapers. I am guessing she weighs 16 lb (sadly we don't have a baby class yet to know for sure).
  • Very adaptable as we have thrown her for a loop with the timezone change, daylight savings change and environment change...and it keeps on changing!
  • Can sit up alone for about 1 second...we are getting there. However once she falls backwards on the bed it becomes a game and she only wants to sit up then immediately fall backwards again.
  • Grabs handfuls of my hair and hangs on tight.
  • Loves her index finger (see pictures below)
Oh the fun of a 5 1/2 month old!

Summer loves that index finger (and any others that she can stuff in her teething mouth)

At the end of the day, when Little Miss Sugar Pie Pumpkin Muffin is relaxed and asleep I wrap up in the Snuggie and lay on the sofa! Rachel C. this picture was taken just for you.
