5 months, already?

This past month went by so fast, and Chloe is changing right before our eyes. She is sleeping less during the day, playing more with toys, putting everything in her mouth and constantly moving her arms and legs.


She is still an easy, mellow baby. What a blessing!

Her brothers absolutely adore her.

They're quite entertaining for her. She just watches them all the time.

  Matching bed heads!






Not the best picture of me (I had just gotten back from exercising), but a good action shot. Chloe likes to be thrown up into the air, but sometimes it makes her a little nervous. Dallin likes to put her on top of his head. That makes me nervous.

We bought her an exersaucer at the used baby store. I almost bought one a month earlier, but she cried when I put her in it at the store. This time she really liked it and immediately tried to chew on the toys. 

She's just the right height for standing.


This is her favorite of the toys. Sometimes she's sucking on a binky and gets confused when they don't both fit in her mouth. And the toys all spring back and forth, so occasionally they bop her on the nose after she lets go. She doesn't like that!

She looks a lot smaller with grandpa than with her brothers.

I almost forgot we had this little baby carrier, and she's almost too big for it! We took her to the fair to watch a free concert, and she was so good.

 Those big blue eyes just kill me.

We gave her rice cereal for the first time tonight, and she's also sucked on watermelon, oranges and other fruits. She is definitely starting to notice our food. She'll grab whatever she can and put it in her mouth.

Soon she'll learn that marshmallows taste even better than the poker.

She has many adoring fans. During Dallin's baptism yesterday, Chloe was passed around from brother to cousin, and she was so good. She even fell asleep in Eric's lap. So sweet!!
