5 months!

I am caught back up on my updates! Landri turned 5 months, Dec. 27th...the time is flying by!
As i look back at her 2 & 3 month photos and now...she has really thinned out!  She no longer has 2 chins! She is eating cereal with bananas twice a day now, but no other foods yet..  she really hasn't shown an interest.  She has only grown 1/4" this month and only gained 4 OUNCES!...not pounds, like past months! haha!
It's pretty awesome to see her developing more and more each week!  She now grabs things and loves to play with my face! She has quite the grasp...ouchie!  She is doing great at almost sitting up...she definitely can pull her self up and then over onto her face!  She just found her toes the other night and is fascinated...i'm waiting to catch them in her mouth!  She is more ticklish too and likes to play 'peek-a-boo'.  We just can't get enough of her!!  All this time with her over the holidays has been so rewarding! 
We tried to put Landri in her 'jenny jump up'...but she just isn't having it!  I figured she would love it..well she does love it ...when you bounce her for her!...she hasn't figured out how to bounce herself just yet.  she is like a ballerina and just spins around on her toes!  It's funny how the thing swallows her up!
We got to visit with a lot of family on my Dad's side over the holiday as well, and Landri got to meet her 2nd cousin Macy..  They just loved eachother!!






'ahhh, get me outta this thing!!'
'whew...much better when you bounce me!'
Landri & Macy
cute hugs!

Christmas time!

We had a wonderful Christmas in Cleburne with my parents!  We took Landri to the Christmas eve service and she did great...she was jibber jabbering away when the service started, and as soon as we started to stand and sing, she made sure she was heard and was singing with us!  Then come sermon time, she took a little nap and woke up in time for communion and the candle light part.  ...a typical church goer! ha!
Here are some pics of our day..
