WANTED


Age: 5 months
Height: 27 inches
Weight: 17 pounds
Hair: Blonde, Red, or Brown depending on the light
Goes by: Londyn, Londy-Lou, Lulu, Lolo, or Sweetie-pie
CRIME: Growing up too fast
Can be seen: rolling over (back to stomach), eating rice cereal, grabbing and eating her toes, yelling, and giggling.



How can it be possible that Londyn is already 5 months (and 8 days) old?!
It seems like she was a newborn just yesterday, and then I blinked and suddenly she is 5 months.
People aren't kidding when they say that kids grow up too fast and time flies.


This past month has been a big one for Londyn and it seems like she has "grown up" so much!
  • She started to grab her toes (and eat them) when she's getting her diaper changed. Apparently that's the only time they're fun to grab.
  • She learned to roll from her back to her stomach and now she won't stay on her back! For a few days she would just roll one way, back-stomach-back-stomach until she got stuck....but she seems to have forgotten how to roll onto her back again.
  • We started feeding her rice cereal this last month too. She has been dying to eat real food for about a month so her first feeding of rice cereal she devoured. We've given her tastes of other food as well and she loves to grab your finger and put it in her mouth to get the food. 
  • She is SO grabby and grabs at anything in front of her or around her. And then it goes straight to her mouth.
  • She still drools a ton and we can see teeth buds, but her teething seems to have stopped...not      complaining!
  • I have no idea why, but Londyn went through a few weeks of waking up 3-4 times at night!! Ahhh it was killer! Those couple of weeks were awful and I was ornery all the time from being so tired. She is down to 1-2 times a night now, which makes for a much happier mama.
  • Londyn LOVES to stand. I'm afraid that she will never learn to sit because anytime she is sitting she arches her back and straightens her legs to stand.
  • Londyn has always been a good laugher, but now she has become sooo giggly! And Daddy can get her laughing SO good. Scaring her gets a big jump, pause and then burst of laughter.
  • Her hair has been growing ferociously....in a mohawk. Gotta get the back and sides growing!

First bites of rice cereal.
Loves spinning (and sometimes jumping) in her jumper.
We absolutely love having Londyn in our lives and can't believe how much joy she brings!
