The Parry Shorts: Lakyn is 5 months!

5 months does not seem possible but here we are!

What a month it has been--some ups and downs but we still have a lot of smiles!

Lakyn came down with a bad cough this month that lasted for about 2 weeks--Dr. thought she had allergies or a little cold but hard to listen to your little one cough for so long!

Shortly after the cough left--Lakyn was grumpy and not herself--no real signs of anything, but something did not seem right---so back to the DR. we went again and we found out she had bumps/sores by her throat which is a virus--along with those bumps usually comes a high fever (she had a low grade fever for 2 days) and also some aches and pains--which is probably why she was grumpy--so we should be on the mend, but needless to say she has not been sleeping well at night!

No official weight or height check this month--she is growing but a lot of people still tell me how little she looks--she sure looks big to me, but she is wearing some 3 month clothes still or 3-6 month clothes! We did graduate to size 2 diapers.

Lakyn has rolled over a couple times and LOVES her feet as you can tell from all the feet pictures below. We also have started to introduce rice cereal--she loved sitting in the high chair and watching us eat so we thought we would go ahead and give her cereal since she was so interested and she has really done well with it. Lakyn is still nursing about every 3 hours--and most of the time this includes the night too---grrr--one of this days--she will remember how to sleep all night because she has done it a couple times! When she is up and fed--she is full of smiles and sounds, but when she is hungry or tired that girl can scream and fuss--I think she has a little bit of a temper!
