Where did the months go!?! Five months have passed ALREADY!?! Wow! Blaine and I were just talking how the days go slow but the weeks and months fly by.
Emily started preschool and has been doing pretty good. She was upset a couple of days when I picked her up but I think she just gets SO tired while she's there. She doesn't really get a nap except for on their walk and all that playing just wears her out. Everyday we get a "poop scoop" with details of what time she ate, when they changed her diaper, how long she napped, and what activities she enjoyed.
She's really been rolling over like crazy in the last week. Every since school she's not minded being on her tummy either. Now she just rolls front to back and back to front like it's no big deal. She would roll all the way down the hallway if you let her. I know our days of her not being mobile are numbered...
Her brother monkey seems to really get her tickled too! She's still exclusively breast fed and i'm really not interested in starting her on solids or even rice cereal until at least 6 months old. But we'll see, i'm still doing research on that. Last weekend we went out on a limb and took her to the NC State football game. Well we knew it probably wasn't a good idea going into it since kick-off was 6pm and her bedtime is 7pm but we thought we'd try anyway. My dad met us there too which was fun.
She was great walking into the game and for a little while when we got in but then she got a little upset. It was time for her to eat so we went to the first aid center and they had an area where we could nurse. She's a bit of a distracted eater usually but I was able to feed her a little before she got too curious about where she was. So we went back to sit down and by then it was close to 7 and she was tired. There was just too much going on and she wouldn't sleep. I took her up to the concourse and got her settled down but she still wouldn't close her eyes. So I thought we'd go sit back down but she wasn't having it. Instead of fighting it the rest of the half we just decided to go. She did great walking (being carried by my dad) back out to the car but screamed once we got her in her carseat and started heading home. FINALLY she settled down and went to sleep. Hearing that cry is quite exhausting and I hate seeing her at that point. I think we'll try again, just not at a game during her bedtime. I don't think the noise was really the problem, just bedtime.
We were at my parents' last week for a night for me to do a CAbi show and Grandaddy and Clareese came to visit! So fun...wait until you see what they bought her...(pictures coming soon)!
