5 Months Old

Well...Alyssa is 5 months old now. Where has the time gone?? She is growing so fast. She is weighing in at 16lbs 4 oz on our scales. She is really beginning to show a lot of different emotions and facial expressions. We can really see her concentrating on things now. She loves to roll over now that she has mastered going both directions. We can lay her on the floor and she rolls until she can't go any further. Then she gets mad, and we have to move her. We've started trying a little cereal, but she's not real interested in it at this point. I think it's too bland for her..lol! I'm really beginning to think she is teething. She is drooling like crazy and constantly chewing on her fingers. I can't feel any bumps yet...but I bet we will be seeing a tooth soon.

We got her a new exersaucer. She loves this thing. She turns in circles to play with all the toys on it and loves to bang the music box to make it play. I just loved the look of concentration on her face with the book. She was so focused on how to move the pages.

just like daddy. I thought this was so cute. They were watching tv together. It made me think of many days to come in the future watching cartoons and movies. Just one more Daddy!!

5 months old!! What a cute little sailor girl.

Standing tall...5 months
Isn't she cute!

I had Alyssa laying on my legs and she just started laughing so hard. Mark didn't get the camera in time, but we got a few shots. She is quickly becoming a major daddy's girl!

Smile for Daddy
Yummy fingers!
