5 MONTHS OLD!!!

I cannot believe that I'm typing that our daughter is 5 months old already...where has time gone? Oh that's right...basketball, school, etc has taken up our time!! :-) Basketball is now over. Ryan had a good time coaching but doesn't quite understand that girls think different than boys do! School is good for both of us. Going by fast...only 2 1/2 months left until summer!! YAY!! Our district is not in near as bad of shape as some districts are. They talked about cutting days at the end of the year but I think that they have decided not to. We'll see what next year has in store for us soon though. Hopefully they won't have to cut any teachers from our district.

Well as you can see from the pictures Kallie is growing FAST!!! We go to the doctor on Tuesday, March 17th for her 4 month check up...I know it's late but between our busy schedule and the doctor's busy schedule that was the soonest we could get in for it. We did take her in just to have her shots a few weeks ago. Ryan got to go with me this time and I think he now understands why it is so rough on me!

Kallie is now interacting more with us. She definitely has her own little personality!! She's a great baby and we really can't complain. We have been fighting off a cold for the last 2 months it feels like. Kallie is now going on round two of the cold. Her and I have both had it twice now. Even when she's not feeling well she is a great baby! She had a two week stretch where she started waking up in the middle of the night but that has stopped.
I did start her on rice cereal at nighttime. She loves it. I usually feed her in her bouncy chair just because it's the most convenient...well she has decided it's fun to make herself bounce as hard as she can while I'm trying to stick the spoon in her mouth...not an easy task for me to feed her while she's doing that. So...needless to say we usually end up with a big huge mess!
She is still only rolling over WHEN she WANTS to...little stinker! Usually when we want to show somebody she won't do it and then when we're not paying attention she rolls over. :-) She tries really hard to roll over from her back to her tummy but she just can't get it yet!! She has a new "saucer" that she loves to be able to stand in!!

Other than that I can't think of anything else that's been going on with us! I guess that is good news...right? Hope everyone is doing well...take care!!

Love,
Ryan, Melissa, and Kallie
