Five Months!

Happy 5 Months Lillie!

Relaxing with her dad! Notice the rattle - it's a lovely gift from Olive, one of Lillie's pals. Lillie LOVES the rattle. It is just about every picture!

Lillie enjoying her some boppy time!



Let's talk about something for a second - Lillie has yet to roll over! For all those non-baby milestone experts out there, this should be happening by now! Her pediatrician isn't nearly as concerned as I am about this - noting that Lillie is in the 89th percentile for weight and that it's harder for big babies to lift and roll their own body weight. So here we are doing tummy time, hoping that Lillie will feel like rolling over some day!

And while she doesn't roll over, look what I found her daddy teaching her! She'll be the first non-rolling over walking baby!

All the pics are adorable but I love that tummy time one -- she is a doll and I've probaby said this before, but she just keeps getting cuter if that is even possible!!

Christie,
Avery wasn't so keen on rolling over either. He's been able to do it if we made him, but is just now doing it on his own. He still doesn't roll from his tummy to his back though. My Pediatrican wasn't concerned either. She said in the era of "back to sleep" a lot of babies don't roll very much. Don't worry! Lillie is a doll!

liile is adorable!! i think her and luke are about the same size!!can you please ask olive's mom where she found that rattle? I have been looking all over for one. Luke played with a cousins' but it was a gift and she had no idea where it was from! as for rolling, luke is rolling from back to belly. but there is a down side, once he flips, he gets frustrated and cries till he is re-flipped to his back. he does this in his sleep too!! Don't worry too much - she'll figure it out!!

I can't believe how big Lillie is getting - she is so sweet! Wish I could squeeze her. :)

Hey Christie, I was catching up on your blog this morning and had to comment about the rattle. We have that same rattle, and both of my boys will still play with it. They are two and a half and 13 months. Seriously. Keynan treats it like a maraca and sings with it. Parker still carries it around. What a great toy.
