Little Poe: 5 Months Old

Wow.  I am SO behind on posting Poesy's 5 month pictures!  We took one set of photos already, but this girl has such sensitive eyes AND allergies that she can hardly open them when we go outside right now!  I had to scrap the whole first shoot because she just looked miserable.  Poor baby!

This month Poe is laughing a lot, FINALLY sleeping in her bed instead of her swing, talking a bunch, and rolling like it's nobody's business.  She's becoming especially easy going and generally happy.  As far as baby months go, 5-6 months is my favorite age.  There is so much sweetness and personality, but they are still immobile!  Once she starts moving around, it's all over.  Have I mentioned that my oldest girl likes to collect teeeeeeny tiny things?  Oh yes, baby proofing is going to be a challenge!


She is NOT fond of swimming.  She does, however, like drying off and having some mama time while the others swim.  I'm okay with it.  ;)



 Whew, that was a lot of family-bloggy stuff this week!  I hope you have a great weekend, friends!  xoxo Katie

    Love 5 months too, definately the best age, so smiley and interactive... although both my boys were beginning to move at 5 months, so the loveliness didn't stick around for too long!

    I was born in Springfield and lived there until I was 3. I had such bad allergies and eczema that my parents never took me outside or anywhere for that matter! I still break out in hives and my allergies flare up every time I go to visit if I don't pre-medicate myself!! Although, if it is any consolation, my allergies got tons better as I grew up!

    Awww, she is too cute for words. I have been nannying for a baby since she was 3 months old. She is now 8 months and i must say that i miss the 5/6 month stage of immobility.

    I agree, this age is SO adorable! My little girl Ellie is 4 months, and also just now is sleeping in her bed instead of her swing, I know the transition! Cute, cute pictures, your girl is so sweet.

    Hello, little Poesy! You looked super cute in that swimwear! I'm sure you'll wear more of those when you grow up! Hee hee! Children do grow up way too fast, sometimes faster than we expect them! Way to go, Poe! =)
