Day 16: Five Months

Today, Michal is five months old.  So incredibly hard to believe that so much time has passed so quickly, and yet it feels as if she has always been with us, always been a part of our lives. 

A few things I've learned in five months:

time flies when you're having fun

huge baby smiles first thing in the morning NEVER get old

getting a baby to sleep without a swaddle IS possible

it is possible to become obsessed over diapers

you eventually stop wondering what color her eyes WILL be and instead take joy in her observing the world

finally, Sophie becomes AWESOME

standing is still super fun, tummy time is still super lame, and sitting is still on the horizon

real food is fun, as is watching for reactions to a new taste
