Miss Adalynn Brielle Capes is FIVE MONTHS OLD today. I can't believe it. Since we haven't been to the doctor for an exact weight I would have to guess she weighs around 14.5 lbs now. She was 25 1/2 inches long at her last appointment. She is now completely formula fed. Even though I am no longer breastfeeding (for some personal reasons) I am happy that I was able to provide her with the closeness and nutrition that I did for the first four months. She is such a happy and content little girl. She is becoming a pro at rolling over from her belly to her back (she's never liked being on her tummy so I know she's happy she figured that one out.) She can also roll from back to belly, but that's not as common. She loves "talking" to us and figuring out all of the new noises and squeals that she can make. She is starting to laugh more, but it's still a pretty rare occasion. She is also working on sitting up by herself and improving more and more everyday. We began feeding her baby cereal before bed about two weeks ago. She was doing pretty well with the spoon, but you could tell she wasn't too fond of the cereal part. We tried green beans as her first real food and she LOVES them! Although she does make some gnarly faces while she's eating them, she is always anxious for the next bite. Ryan and I are so blessed by God with such a smart and fun little girl. We are loving every second of watching her learn and grow. We are also blessed with such a loving family and support group. Adalynn is so lucky to have all of you in her life and we love you all so much!
She wasn't too happy about Green Bay's loss today as you can see...
