5 Months and 10 Years!

Alyssa is now 5 months old! Time flies! She is busy trying to sit up (which involves a full-body crunch as her head comes off the floor at the same time as her feet and she strains to get vertical), blow kisses (often with her tongue sticking out- very funny to watch), roll over, chew on her toes and stand up (just not at the same time). Some attempts are more successful than others, but she just won't give up!

We have been blessed with longer stretches of sleep at night, too! She is waking up once or twice over 10-12 hours and we are psyched! We've been able to have non-baby conversations and get 4-6 hours of sleep at a time. YAY!!!!!!

The latest look of the sweetie......

This week also marked 10 years together for Mike and I. We had our first date on October 25th, 1997! WOW!

  2. Hi Jennie,
    I just love this picture of Alyssa - she has the most amazingly expressive eyes. I just can't wait for March when I will have my very own grandbaby to spoil.
    I look forward to seeing you this weekend. Also, send me your address and phone number.

    Hugs,
    Debi
