Eva is FIVE months old!

Eva Claire

Eva we can't believe you are 5 months old already!! You're just growing too fast. You are such a happy baby. You have lots of entertainment from your older sisters - they are never still! You love to watch them and get excited - kick your feet and buck and jump in our laps. I have to hold on to you tight or you'll just jump right out of my arms. Just before naps when Madilynn & Elizabeth are watching Barney you lay on your blanket in the floor and would rather watch Barney too than play with your toys. Its so funny that it's kind of entertaining to you now.
We love your precious smiles and your little giggles which we are getting a little more often these days, but still hard to get on video.
These little girls love each other so much!

Here's what Eva's been up to in the last week:

Last Tuesday morning she had her first taste of rice cereal

getting ready...

first bite...

not sure...

big smiles...

Daddy got a try...

and of course we got more smiles! Eva has done well with the cereal this past week, can't wait to try a vegetable - butternut squash sometime this week!

Tuesday after a trip to the store we came home with this:

She's had lots of fun in it already, and when she gets excited she starts trying to jump up and down in it!

Elizabeth has enjoyed showing her how all of the toys work!

On Thursday we switched her schedule around again so she can get more sleep at night. So she's been having 4 7oz. bottles a day with cereal at the first two feedings. So now she is sleeping 11 hrs. at night! yeah!!

Friday, Eva wore her new Razorback shirt to cheer on the Hogs!

Madilynn tried the crowns on Eva, looks like they fit!

So, so precious!
