Monica – 5 Months

Just for future reference, I should report that Monica began rolling over 2-3 weeks ago (I have it written down exactly when… somewhere). She started by rolling back to front, and in the last day or so has really gotten the hang of intentionally\’c2\~ rolling over front to back again. Once on her tummy, she’s taken to scrunching herself up and scooting – backward. And last night she was able to sit up without support for probably at least a minute! Yes, I know, breathtaking. Also, she is growing out of her 3-6 months clothes already – too short in the legs, and hard to snap in the crotch. I wish I knew how much she weighed, but I’m probably overdue for another checkup for her and don’t have a recent weight.\par

And now she is suffering from the second cold in her life. Too bad for her. Too bad for me. But her brothers are keeping her company in runny noses, so at least she’s not alone in her misery.
