Our little Riley has now been around for 5 whole months! She weighs approx. 13 lbs 3 oz and is gaining new skills every day. She loves to make noises and hear the different sounds that come out if her mouth is open or when it's closed. She is sitting up very steadily now without assistance, but still topples over when she gets distracted. She is much more into her toys, loves to put them in her mouth, and needs pretty much constant entertainment or she gets bored. At daycare she holds her bottle all by herself, and actually seems to prefer that over someone holding it for her. At home, she and Ski now have an agreement - Ski gets to lick Riles as much as she wants, and Riley can grab Ski's fur (or eyes or mouth or tail) as much as she wants.
Riley has become a lot more interested in the food we are eating, so I'm thinking we will try a few tastes of some baby food pretty shortly. Although she has never really been a great sleeper, we think we might be starting to see some more consistency as far as that goes. Now that she has completely mastered rolling over both ways, she has been sleeping on her stomach and usually sleeps a lot better that way, getting up once per night to eat but otherwise sleeping from about 7-7. She is so much fun to be around, and as long as she's fed and rested, there's really nothing that bothers her.
