"I am 5 months going on 9 months..."

Happy 5 months to our baby girl who is getting so big! At her last appointment on September 20th, she weighed 14 lbs and was 26 1/2 inches long. Her long legs and torso are helping her skip over most of her 6 month clothes and go straight to 9 month! Check out this adorable 9 month tu-tu for example - I put it on today and it is almost too small...but still cute as all get out.

This past month of her life, Zoë has continued to experiment with all sorts of sounds. Her current favorite is the trumpet buzz. She also reaches out and grabs anything and everything she can get her hands on, including my glasses and a part of my brat bun at dinner last night. 

Giggles are the best part of each day for both Zoë and her parents, and mommy and daddy try all sorts of craziness to get her laughing up a storm. This past month has been better for us too, as Zoë is sleeping an average of 9 hours per night with little to no interruption. Yay!

We love you so much, our little (mostly) happy child! You are a joy and a delight.
