Matti is now

5 months old!

1  ~ 2 ~ 3 ~ 4 ~ 5

Matti is growing along just fine.  She's upwards of 10 lbs, eating like a teenager, and dancing up a storm.  Matti turned 5 months old on July 26th.  That's 2 months adjusted age (which is what we go by for developmental milestones.)

LOVES

• Staring at faces
• Reading books with Mama and Daddy
• Swatting her toys that hang overhead
• Music - Disney to Sinatra to Melissa Etheridge to AC/DC
• Lambie and Lionel (her wubba pacifiers)
• Riding in the car
• Touring around in her BabyBjorn carrier
• Swimming in the bath tub
• "Standing" or "sitting" with Mama and Daddy's help

DISLIKES

• Reflux, it's no fun
• Being buckled into her car seat
• Being set down after snuggling asleep with you
• Tummy time 

MILESTONES

• Rolls from back to stomach
• Better at holding her head up while on stomach 
• Notices her hands
• Starting to teeth (note drool and hand-chewing)
• Looks for you while playing peek-a-boo
• Eating more
• "Talking" at us

Meanwhile, Khaleesi is still doing well with Mattigan but has definitely shown us she wants extra attention.  Recent Khaleesi antics include shredding some diapers, stealing stuffed animals from Mattigan's room, eating an entire washcloth, chewing on Mattigan's toys...

However, Khaleesi has been giving Mattigan kisses (very sloppy, wet, drooly kisses says Matti) and is always watching over her. If Matti cries about anything besides being hungry Khaleesi comes to get me like Lassie. (As if I didn't hear for myself. Lol)  Khaleesi also supervises baths. Also, Matti will be swinging away and then Khaleesi has to go set her head on Matti's lap to make sure she's ok.  Crazy kids. :)
