Our Big Girl!

Annalise is getting so big. She turned 5 months old in October and has really come to life. She rolls all over now and can scoot herself around a little...although she mostly goes backwards when she goes. She has begun waking up some during the night and I think it is because she rolls over and hasn't quite figured out how to get herself comfortable again and back to sleep. Hopefully she can get that figured out soon! Everything she can get her hands on, goes straight to her mouth. She loves being entertained by her brothers and "repays" them with plenty of smiles and giggles! She continues to be one of the best behaved, happiest babies around!


Annalise loves her jumper. The first time she played in there, the music freaked her out a bit, but once she got over that, she has loved every minute in that thing.


She also enjoys her swing...


especially doing tricks in it.

"Look Mom, one foot!"

Enjoying a ride from Dad.

On November 2nd Annalise had her first "solid food" meal. She had rice cereal and as you can see here, she enjoyed every minute of it. Whenever I got the spoon close to her, she would grab my hand and pull it right in. She also would get all excited and giggle as she ate. Of course most of it ended up outside of her, but we think she did really well for a first timer! She is just so much fun!
