Not a necessity...



But sometimes it feels like one.

5 months

Truly is 5 months now. Every time I blink, she turns another month. It's insane. I LOVE this stage of baby! She is seriously perfect to me. I tell everyone she's my angel baby. We've had many challenges this year and I honestly believe Tru was sent here for me. Well probably for all of us, but I AM the mom. Ha. There's just something about the Spirit of a baby that really changes the feeling in your home. Gosh, I love my girls! I love my family. They make me feel so blessed!

Anyway, on to this months changes... Truly is letting her personality show more. She makes some pretty funny faces. She can get things she wants a bit better, and it's been taking Sky by surprise. (Like when Tru grabs Sky's hair. HA!) She weighs 15lbs and is 26 1/4in long. She still nurses, but I give her a bottle before bed. She drinks 8oz before bed! That's nuts to me. The most Sky ever drank was 6. She just weighs so much more and I think she's getting ready to need some solids in her diet. She's a pro at holding her own bottle! She has such an easy-going personality and is always full of smiles. She enjoys standing now and is getting close to be able to sit up on her own. I love her big blue eyes, her super kissable, chunky cheeks, and the fact that her feet are her most fav toy. So not fair that the baby stages are the shortest of all. Maybe that's why they're so enjoyable. :)

Halloween

We dressed up as Crayons for Halloween. It was fun! We celebrated all weekend with a party on Friday, our Ward Fall Festival/Trunk-or-Treat on Saturday, a baby blessing and family time on Sunday, and then another fall festival and trick-or-treating on Monday. Holy cow! We really enjoyed taking Sky door to door, even if she could only handle a few streets! She was crying for her bed when we were done! haha. She would say "trick or treat" walking up to the door, but got shy every time they answered. Truly was adorable and easy, of course. Love me little crayons! Austin and I can act like kids again because of them! :)Our official Crayola Crayon names: aquamarine, torch red, tickle me pink, and purple pizzazz
