Lexi turned 5 months on Monday and has hit some major milestones all of a sudden!
She's finally tall enough to use her tip-toes to jump & play:

| Here she is with cousin Zoe when we went to Las Vegas to visit (Zoe's in the middle of trying to figure out how to get that bow off of Lexi's head, lol) |
She has been to church twice and both times sat through the entire thing without a peep:

She smiles all the time now and is quite the happy girl:
She eats rice cereal 3 times a day and loves it:
This was taken on her 3rd time of rice cereal and boy was she hungry! Now, she's totally quiet as soon as she gets in her seat :)
But sometimes, eating makes her sleepy:
AND the latest & greatest...She rolls over!:
Next up, sitting! It's a work in progress but she's starting to prefer sitting :)

Here are her stats:
length: 25 1/2inches
weight: 13 pounds (on our scale)
clothing size: 3 months
diaper size: size 2
new likes:eating from a spoon, putting her feet in her mouth, playing with her toys on the carpet, and doesn't mind being on her belly so much
dislikes: being hungry, teething, and having her face wiped after a meal
eating: she eats 1/4cup of rice cereal mixed with 3oz of breast milk or formula 3X/day (which pretty much sustains her for ~3.5hrs) and breastfeeds in between.
nap: a big one in the morning (2-3hrs) and 1-2 1hr ones in the afternoon & evening
sleeping: Through the night still!!! ...from 9:30pm-7:30/8am (except for the 3days in a row when she was teething, but she ate & went back to sleep).
new tricks: rolling over, eating from a spoon, putting her feet in her mouth, and pushing up on her hands (when on her belly)
