5 Months Old!

At five months, Maya:
Weighs 13 pounds
Wears size 2 diapers
Has moved into 6 month clothes
Says "dadadadada" and "gagagaga" all day long :)
Gives open-mouthed "kisses"
Pulls mama's hair
Smiles ALL the time
Likes to reach out to anything in front of her
Shakes toys, sometimes hitting herself in the head
Flips from back to her belly and "scoots" in circles
Eats her toes

Caution: Cliches ahead!!
It seems that each stage of Maya's growth and development just continues to be more and more fun.  Just when I think being a mama can't get any better, it does!  Maya continues to amaze us as she grows and picks up on new things quickly.  I wish I could just freeze time for a little bit! ;)

And... the post wouldn't be complete without a little 5 month photo shoot!

I completely agree! Not only are we able to get advice and support from other mom's out there, the mom's are all girls we grew up with! I think that is awesome! We get to stay in touch and be "there" for each other. I don't really work with anyone my age, so it is nice to be able to go on here and vent or ask for advice. It makes me feel like I am not alone! Your little girl is adorable and I can tell you from experience it only gets more fun! It made me sad sometimes to think about Gracelyn growing out of her "baby" phase, but there is nothing like your little girl coming up to you out of the blue and saying, "Momma, I love you" while she is giving you a big hug! Best thing in the world! Being a mommy is easily the most fun, amazing, and rewarding thing I will ever do!
