madison - 5 months

Madison is five months old!! She is starting to explore with her hands more and more, like grabbing for faces, pulling on hair, and reaching for toys. Once Madison has accomplished her goal of getting a hold of something, she does her best to get it to her mouth so that she can suck on it. Lately, Madison has really enjoyed sitting up on Mommy or Daddy's lap, with support of course. She loves to see what is going on around her! I think she really likes to watch her big sister, Audrey, who is always very entertaining. Madison rolled from her tummy to her back weeks ago, and she is very close to rolling over from her back to her tummy. For now, she likes to lie on her back and roll from side to side, while holding on to one of her favorite toys and making sweet baby sounds. Just before Madison turned five months old, we decided it was time to be done with the swaddle. The day we unswaddled her, she found two fingers to suck on and ever since then, those two fingers have worked as a "binky". This could be the reason why Madison is now sleeping from 7:30pm until 7:30am...12 hours straight...thank you, thank you, thank you baby girl!!

Spending some of her free time in the activity saucer.

Riding in the double stroller with big sister for the first time, heading to the park.

All wrapped up after a bath.

Her newly found pleasure.

Naked baby...love it!!
