5 months old!

My little sweet pea is 5 months old! She is getting so big and I wish she could just stay little forever! She was 10lbs 9oz and 22.6in long on Feb. 24th and she is now 11lbs and almost 23in long! She has grown so much in only a month's time and is almost out of her 3month clothes and into 3-6month clothes. She is such a sweetheart and never makes a peep unless she is hungry or wants something. She is so curious, determined, independant, and a snuggle bunny. She is now starting to sit up with assistance so I have recently started feeding her rice cereal with a little bit of applesauce for taste and she has gotten so good at eating her big girl food! She loves to sit up and look around and be apart of the conversation like a little grown-up. She is now sleeping in her crib like a big girl and she does so well sleeping all night til 8am. She loves watching her disney movies and she has recently gotten attached to Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. She has started to giggle and smile when you make funny faces and noises and she loves being silly with Daddy.

She has her Daddy wrapped around her fingers! She loves for him to play with her before bedtime and then curl up on his chest and pass out for the night. It's so sweet! She has stolen both of our hearts and I just can't help but get excited every morning when I hear her playing in her crib. I melt everytime I see her smile and hear her little giggle as she plays with her hands and feet! She also got to meet her MeMe and Papaw Davidson, her great-aunt heather, and her 2nd cousin Maddie who fell in love with her as soon as they saw her! She loved cuddling up with them and taking in all of the new sights and sounds. I can't believe how much she has changed in just a month's time and I can't imagine how much she is going to change in the month ahead!

*lunchtime with Memaw!

*ready for the summer... come on warm weather!

*sleeping all night in her crib!

*she hasn't figured out that she can't laugh and eat at the same time lol

My Sweet Pea has a Sweet TOOTH!

The doctor did tell us at our last visit to be watching for her to start teething, but it could be 2 more months since she was born 2 months early. However, our poor little sweet pea has started teething! She apparently has been teething for the past two weeks since her symptoms have been going on for that long and my light bulb just came on that teething could be the culprit. I called the doctor this morning just to make sure and sure enough.... she's teething!

Her symptoms (for parents who may be still waiting for this...exciting stage in their baby's life lol) are: excessive drooling, inflammed gums, white spots on the gums (the teeth), fussiness while feeding, and excessive crying. She has been unusually fussy here the past few weeks and we have had to endure a couple of long nights although she has been doing great sleeping through the night (when we finally get her to sleep). So the solution...... baby orajel and TEETHING TABLETS! God's gift to mothers with teething babies! I put 2 tablets under her tongue and poof.... happy baby in 10 min! We will see how long this stage last, but hopefully we will be seeing some little baby teeth here soon!

Cassidy's First Valentine's Day!

Cassidy's first Valentine's Day was definitely filled with sweets and love! She LOVED her cute stuffed puppy from Daddy... it tastes just as good as her Munk Munk! lol

She got dressed up in her valentine's outfit and we all headed out for our family day out for Valentine's Day. We went out to eat for lunch and then enjoyed the movie Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightening Thief. She stayed awake through the whole movie and watched very quietly cause she is such a sweet girl. When we got home we had a little valentine's photo shoot while Daddy got her bottle ready.

*Definitely Daddy's Little Sweetheart<3

*Daddy's favorite girls!

*I'll eat your face mommy.. gimme my bottle! lol

*Funny Face

*kisses for my sweetheart<3

After plenty of kisses and a full tummy, our precious angel nodded off to sleep for the night. Her first valentine's day turned out to be as sweet as her little baby kisses! She has stolen her Mommy and Daddy's hearts and has us wrapped around her precious little fingers. She is our meaning of true love!

*4 months old*

OMG, my baby girl is now 4 months old!! I can't believe how much she has changed all in the matter of a month! She went from just getting into newborn clothes to now wearing 0-3month and 3month clothes. She has become A LOT more active! She likes to squirm around and kick the living crap out of anything that comes near her feet. She has rolled over a few times but she is more focused on her feet and hands than trying to roll over. It was the coolest thing ever to watch her for the first time finally seeing me a little further away and being able to follow me across the room. She is so alert and really takes everything in! She LOVES her winnie the pooh movies and has recently gotten attached to Cinderella. She really likes the mice in the movie..lol. She has started to like toys, especially her lay&play, but is very attached to one monkey that we have named Munk Munk. The poor thing is constantly covered in baby drool and is always somewhere close to her. She cuddles up with it and has started to be fussy if she doesn't have it tucked next to her. Her major accomplishment has definitely been that she now sleeps all through the night!! It is the best thing ever! She goes to bed about 8pm and I wake her up to eat at 12am to eat and then she sleeps til about 7-8am. You never really appreciate 6hrs of sleep until you have a baby.

She is such a good girl for me during the day, but when daddy comes home it is apparently play time! She wants to pitch a fit until daddy picks her up and plays with her. She is definitely a Daddy's little girl! This past weekend she got to experience her first snow! It snowed up to 8in of snow and she was definitely not a fan..lol. When I stuck her hand in the snow she gave me this look like "mommy, that is too damn cold, what are you thinkin"? lol Super cute! She now is alittle over 21in long and somewhere between 9-10lbs. She goes to get her 4month shots and check-up this thursday.

*chipmunk cheeks...got to love baby fat! lol
