Shasta's 5 Months

Every month I say I can't believe she's already that many months old, but 5 months feels like a big one to me. I can't believe there's been a baby in my life for 5 months. It's so crazy! She's hit a lot of milestones this last month. Here's the list of her latest happenings.

By 5 months:

* Went to her first, second, and third volleyball game

* Went to her first football game (and they won! GO AGGIES!)

* Had her first outing two days in a row. First at 2nd Dam in Logan and second at Mueller Park in Bountiful

* Kind of laughs. She’ll smile big and sometimes let out sound with it

* Can now wear headbands

* Started wearing 0-3 month clothes

* Switched to size 1 diapers

* Her eyes follow you as you move

* Discovered her fingers big time. They’re always in her mouth. And she shoves them so far in she chokes on them!

* Watches Wedge while she lies on the floor

* Picks up toys

* Grew Snuffaluffagus eyelashes

* Started cooing (which is my most favorite thing ever)!

* Spins in circles while laying on the floor

* Lifts her toosh off the ground when I change her diaper and tries to scoot back

* Rolled from back to tummy once, but always flips to her side when she’s on the floor

* Got a bald spot

* Went to her first parade (USU Homecoming)

* Sucks on her shirt

* Naps 1-2 hours in the morning, 2-3 hours in the afternoon, and a 20 minute cat nap in the evening

* Goes to bed at 10pm, sleeps roughly 6 hours straight, then wants to eat every 3 hours after that until about 9:30am when she’s up for the day.


* Refuses to take a bottle

* Had first studio pictures taken

* Thinks it’s so funny when you smell her feet and say they’re so stinky!

Her Grandpa Randy was SUPER proud of that picture. He took it to work and showed to to everyone. So glad to have Aggie fans in the family!!
