5 months

It seems hard to believe that Skye is 5 months already! Her little personality is coming out and it's such a joy to watch her grow! She is every bit as friendly, social and happy as her big brother was at this age, and oh yeah, every bit as active too! She rolls in both directions and has now started the scoot! Darn it, I wanted a little lap baby that didn't have ambitions to walk till she was two. LOL!

She is *in love* with Carter. Watched everything he does like a hawk. What's he eating, what's he playing with, what's he doing, where is he going, why can't I do that? He is very generous with her and we've found that having their car seats together in the car has been more helpful than apart as he is her personal entrainer.

Still no solids yet, just milk, but boy is she interested! When she puts a toy in her month she sort of looks at it like 'why isn't this giving me anything?' She's a good eater though, as evidenced by her chubby thighs and bright eyes :) Love that mama's milk!



We've been enjoying summer in our backyard but we did make it out to mom and dad's beach last week. Skye enjoyed her first dunk in Dunham Lake, it was so warm and we found a nice shady spot. She seems to really enjoy the water. Big brother was having the time of his life, so anxious to swim, can't wait to start official toddler swim classes in a few weeks.



Other than that, Skye Aimee is just pure joy, the kind of blessing we didn't know we needed till she was with us!
