5 moths and 2 days Old!

Evelyn is growing so fast, I can hardly keep up with her. Or my blog.

At her four month check up Evelyn was 26 inches long (95%) and weighed 13lbs and 10oz (50%). She is a long, lean baby and I love it. The next day (9/10) I was sorting through her clothes. She is now wearing 3-6 month onesies and even fits into a lot of her 6 month clothes. I found these cute 3-9 month onesies at Target that have come in handy. I had her in her crib with her mobile on when Evee started fussing. I looked at her and saw that she had rolled completely over onto her stomach. A few nights later she woke up "asking" for food, when I went to get her she was on her stomach again looking up at me with a big grin. Evelyn has been sleeping on her stomach since, for about two weeks now!

Another bit of good news is that I got a new job. I just finished my third week working as a paraprofessional. I enjoy my job so far but it is very hard leaving Evelyn. Luckily my parents and in-laws have graciously agreed to handle the day care. Makes leaving her a little easier, but not much.

Evelyn has now almost outgrown her infant car seat. She is very aware and loves to play, "sing", giggle, and roll from her back to her tummy. Evee loves to bounce in her exersaucer and taking apart the crocodile on it every time we try to put him back together. She is able to sit in her stroller with being in her car seat as of her fifth month birthday. We make sure to have blankets around her so Evee does not bounce around to much. My cousin is going to get married at the end of this month, so Evelyn and I (hubby is working that weekend) are going down to see Great-Grandma (again) and all her Great-Aunts and Uncles. Everyone is excited to meet her. And now for some cuteness....
