Our little darlin' turned 5 months old yesterday! And she's just getting more adorable and fun every day. Here are some recent milestones:
* Discovering her feet. Even more delightful was discovering that she could put them in her mouth.
* Rolling over. This happened a few weeks ago but it's made life so much more fun for her. Now when I lay her on her back I usually find within a few seconds that she's rolled over onto her stomach and kicking those chubby legs furiously trying to figure out how to crawl. I have a feeling that's coming soon!
* Learning her name. We're not sure when this happened but the last few days we noticed that when anyone says Lucy's name, her little head whips around trying to figure out who is talking to her. She really is an incredibly social baby. I have to take her out somewhere every day to admire and be admired, even if it's just a quick trip to the store. She loves people!
*And my personal favorite: Lucy kisses. I guess she was tired of having thousands of kisses planted on her cheeks, ears, forehead, nose, etc., without giving any back. So now when I am holding her she rotates so she's facing me, grabs the hair on both sides of my head, and very deliberately pulls me towards her open, smiling mouth. Then she spends a few minutes with her mouth pressed against my chin or cheek (depositing a lot of saliva on my face) before pulling away to see if I approved. It's adorable. I love Lucy kisses, even if my face is drenched afterwards.
So happy 5 months baby girl! We love you!

Yay! Happy 5 months Lucy! David is nearly two, but his kisses are still like that - mouth wide open, saying, "mmm!" I showed him the pictures of Lucy eating her cereal, and he said her name for the first time! ("Oooh-see!")
Yay! Glad he knows her, should be fun when they get together in May :)
