Dear little Mary,
You are far too mobile for 5 months but I don't think you care what I think. You can roll long distances now. You absolutely refuse to sleep on your back and you reach out and grab whatever you are interested in without any trouble. You're pretty amazing. You also are in love with Elmo just like your big sister. No matter what is going on, you hear his voice and you stop what you are doing and stare at the big blob of red monster the entire time he's up there -- even while nursing -- which for the record, you are way too interested in every tiny sound to pay much attention to lately anyway. You make up for that during sleep though. You have to eat all night, but snuggling with you is one of my favorite things in the world. You are starting to do the seperation anxiety thing your sister never did but that I've read about. You barely even want Daddy to hold you. Your baptism is scheduled for Thursday the 18th with Fr Eddie, so hopefully you do not scream too much or for too long being held by someone else. You love water though and baths are your favorite. Mommy has given you licks off my spoon of a few things (lemon ice mainly) which isn't the "correct" way to go about first feeding, but Josie's entry to the world of feeding was nothing but unconventional so I figure, it can't matter too much. I am NOT starting you on infant cereal. That stuff has the worst texture. I will probably give you some cream of wheat depending on your iron levels, but mommy and daddy both love that so you might too!
Anyway, got to go as you are rolling across the floor and its just a matter of time before you find a cheerio.
Love Mommy <3
