5 Months



Let's just go ahead and say that if I ever DO get these month posts up on time, it will be the exception, not the rule, k?:)

On August 24th, Lola turned 5 months old! It seems like every time I complete one of these posts, it's time to do the next one! Time is really flying, and Lola is really growing and changing so much. One of the biggest things that happened this month was that my baby girl became a stomach sleeper! I couldn't believe it the first time I saw it, and it made me paranoid. I think I checked on her like 12 times the first night she did it. But the crazy thing is, she sleeps so much better on her stomach! She doesn't stay there all night long, but she spends the majority of the night on her stomach. So precious:).


We had a pretty good month of sleep, too. Generally, she would sleep 10-12 hours at night, and take 4 naps a day: 2 two hour naps, and 2 one hour naps. There were definitely days that were longer, and definitely days that were shorter, but you get the idea.

We had our first "sickness" this month, where Lola got a skin infection on her face. Not too pretty, but she is much better now. Poor baby:(


She still eats 5-6oz every 3-4 hours, and weighed in around 16 1/2 lbs. at 5 months. She is such a good eater and I can't believe that by my next monthly post, she will most likely be eating solids! Crazy!

We did a good amount of swimming this month at Fancy & Paco's, too. I wouldn't say Lola "loves" the water, but she more so tolerates it for our sake. She's sweet like that:). But what a cutie she is in her swimsuit!



All in all it has been another great month filled with lots of smiles, laughs, hugs, chats, and snuggles. We love this little girl so much it hurts. Happy 5 months baby girl! We love you!
