Abbey's 5 Months!

Well, we took Abbey to her 5 month appointment (I can't believe she is that old already!). She is doing great and weighed in at 13 pounds, 5 ounces and 24 3/4 inches. She gained 2 pounds and grew an inch in just a month! Now she is up in the 25th percentile (from the 5th percentile a month ago), so we are very happy with her progress. She still seems so little to us, but is finally fitting in her 3-6 month clothes. I guess we can't expect her to be too big...as a doctor told my mom 29 years ago after taking a look at her (she is 5'2), "You don't take a chihuahua and get a great dane!"

Since she has grown so well over the past month, we got the ok to start some solid foods. So, we immediately started her on rice cereal...

You can tell she did not like it too much...

All that growing and trying new food must have been exhausting - Abbey fell asleep while playing with her toy! She didn't even let go!

Sleep tight sweet baby!
