Five months!

This morning Madeline's tummy-time session was somewhat truncated. She still had time to exercise ...

... and admire the cats ...

... but soon we had to conduct our five-month photo shoot!

Let's backtrack for a moment and see how she's grown.

One month:

Two months:

Three months:

Four months:

And now, five months!

She's back to making her brass-instrument sound:

She's very enthusiastic about eating her foot:

And she's getting to be quite a good sitter:

When Max dropped her off at daycare, the staff promised to take extra-special care of her. And when I picked her up, they reported that she'd had a great day (and spent lots of time outside)!

Sure enough, this evening, at least after a trip to the awe-inspiring (to Madeline) grocery store, was full of smiles -- and gnawing.

Some gnawing:

And some smiling:

Some smiling:

And some gnawing:

And with that it was time for bed (and pre-bed snack).
