We definately call her monkey for a reason!
Our baby Alivia at 5 months old is…
…breaking the record for busiest baby out of all my kids (and I didn’t think they could get any busier! phew!)
…crawling (has for 3 weeks now)
…pulling up to things (the couch, dishwasher, chairs, my legs…you name it) and standing
…bonking her little noggin on everything in sight
…loving rice cereal and avacados, the two solid foods she’s tried so far
…taking one bottle a day but still loves to snuggle with mama and nurse the best
…busy, busy, busy….oh did I already mention that?
…a grunty baby
…wearing size 6-12 month clothes
…weighing in at 18 lbs
…our little monkey!

I’m sort-of new to your blog and wanted to tell you how much I love it! Precious baby girl! I can’t believe she is crawling so young! I don’t know what I’d do…. I have a 9 month old that has been crawling for a month now and is into everything! So cute. We call her “monkey” sometimes too…but mostly Doodlebug. 🙂 Love your blog!
Are you kidding me?? She’s crawling? Pulling herself up? Are you sure she’s only 5 months? We just had our baby weighed for his 2 month appointment and he’s already 15.5 pounds with a head in the 95th percentile, so I’m kind of thinking he won’t have the neck strength to do any of that so early! She’s adorable! I wish you guys were coming to Utah again sometime soon!
What a doll she is!!! I always call Eli a stinker… monkey seems kinder 🙂
She is adorable, but sounds very busy. You need to have a slow child for #4. I guess she keeps you on your toes.
How are thing coming along?
Incredible…. she is CRAWLING? and pulling herself up… she is adorable… sort of makes all the busyness and monkeyness worth it… I love it when they are all in bed at night though! They are especially sweet and innocent then aren’t they?
What a beautiful family you have 🙂
Oh my goodness she is absolutely adorable!!! I haven’t been to your blog in ages. Well about 5 months I’d say. 😉 Enjoy her! Because as you know, they grow up way too quickly.
Lil monkey want to keep up with family. =}
Sweet.. thank for sharing…
OMG … crawling and pulling herself up. My daughter is 5 months also and no where near the crawling stage.
