5 months old

Carolina, Carolina Lola, Caracola (snail), Pumpkin, Monkey, Carino- you are 5 months old (March 22)! You lived it up big time celebrating in Panama. You've now been in 3 countries in just 5 short months! My little travel companion. Again, you did amazing on the flights. Sleeping..... well you're a little bit crazy in that area. I thought we had won the battle in month 3 when you were sleeping thru the night. Hmmmm you're back to your 2 and 3 hour wake-ups. Napping? No time for that. You are way too interested in the world around you. You weigh 15.12 pounds and are 2 ft 1inch tall. You LOVE LOVE LOVE to hold hands. It gets you to sleep and keeps you company on long car rides. You are talking up a storm, playing and sucking on your sweet toes and if there is a finger anywhere around- it ends up in your mouth. You hold yourself up so straight, almost sitting and are just 1 small kick away from rolling over. You like your voice, screams, blabbers, slobbers, all of it. Once you make one noise, you just keep on going..... You found your ears and grab them sometimes- and they might be somewhat noticeably larger =). Your hair is getting blonder and so much longer on top. Whoooweee this is getting fun. Love love love you in our lives.
