Five months old!

So it's a week late posting this but life is crazy busy! Calleigh wants so much of my time and I am glad to give it! I did take lots of pics and will share some below! So here's where we stand for 5 months:
- She has rolled over both ways but would rather just lie on her side
- She blows bubbles a lot now
- She is quite the "talker" lots of sounds coming out of her mouth, moving toward babbling with consonants and vowels together (yes the speech/lang development background has me watching this area closely, mostly out of curiosity to see it in action!)
- She loves to be pulled to standing but still has "noodle legs" as her grandma calls them
- nicknames - "Calleigh alley", "Goob," "girlie girl" and more
- She is fascinated with objects and reaches out and grabs them with her hands and sometimes with just fingers and has pretty good dexterity
- Saves her best smiles for Mommy and Daddy but loves to share smiles with everyone
- Giggles when she gets her clothes changed and mommy just found her tickle spot!
There's more but that's what I could think of! Having her reach this milestone was extra important for me as we lost Delaney at 5 months - so from this point on it's all very new to me...I do treasure every single day!
Here are the latest pictures:



Chubby thighs; who can resist? Look at those feet holding onto a toy like that!



5 months on this date; the flash does fascinate her!



Another five month pic; her Grandma Scott bought her this pretty outfit and matching blanket. So girlie!










We went to see some WWII airplanes last week; pretty cool!



Happy Fathers Day to Jeff, my dad and my brother!
