Whew! This Mother's Day marked Elizabeth's fifth month birthday. I can't believe how fast the time is going! On Mother's Day daddy made mommy a big breakfast (his pancakes are to die for) and gave mommy a beautiful white gold locket inscribed with Elizabeth's name and birthday on the back. I can't wait to put pictures in my locket, but it will be difficult to decide which picture to put in! I guess I will have to rotate.
Elizabeth loved sitting in her big girl chair. While not on solids just yet, we put her in this chair at a friend's house so mommy and daddy could eat dinner. She loved being at the big table and loved interacting with everyone. She is truly a social butterfly. Elizabeth has been much more interested in watching mom and dad eat food, so we are thinking of giving rice cereal a try here pretty soon.
Elizabeth has cut her first two teeth. Yesterday was pretty bad - as the poor girl couldn't sleep and ran a low grade fever. We thought it was just the one tooth, then noticed the second one coming all the way through. We are doing our best to relieve her pain - tablets, gels, frozen washcloths, rings, pacifiers, the works. Today she was better, and plays with her gums as much as she can. Our little girl is growing up!
