Timberlyn 5 months

Oops!  I missed a couple days this weekend.  I think because nothing worth blogging about really happened.  We had a pretty mellow Saturday, cleaning the playroom and delivering some coconut bread.  Then Sunday we went to church, had dinner, and went to Grandma and Grandpa FitzSimmons house to watch Funniest Home Videos – its become a tradition because we don’t have t.v. and they do.  Plus, Grandma usually gives us something sweet to eat  

Today I went to work in the morning and Leonard went to work this evening so not much going on that is worth blogging about.  We still don’t have snow. 

Timberlyn turned 5 months old a few days ago.  She is still a happy baby and starting to become more involved in the world.  She notices when she is alone – and doesn’t like it.  She also doesn’t like being in her car seat when it’s dark outside.  That’s a problem because in North Idaho, it gets dark at 4:00 in the winter time.  So she cries in the car….

She has only rolled over a couple times by accident but she is starting to reach for an hold things that she wants.  She has discovered her hands but can’t control them the way she wants.  Its funny to watch her try to suck her thumb while she is poking herself in the eye with her fingers! 

She knows that I am her food source and when she is hungry she comes at me with an open mouth, trying to find her milk.  She will start sucking on anything that hits her lips.  An arm, finger, or my cheek…whatever is closest.  It’s pretty funny and I love it!! 

The kids adore her and we are so happy she’s here.  I cannot believe that she is 5 months old.  Where does the time go???  I’ll post a picture of her tomorrow!
