Other Five Month Notables

Other 5-month notables:

Aydin can press the buttons on her musical jukebox by herself! You love "Won't You Come Home Bill Bailey" the best.

You seem to like the color yellow most.

You don't mind wearing a bib because you can grab onto the fabric and suck on it.

Speaking of sucking, you like to suck on your lower lip. This concerns me a bit. You have a mild rash underneath your lip due to this frequent habit. I'm going to ask the doctor if I should try to curb this habit.

You breathe heavily when you're excited, a quick little two-pant. You also sigh this adorable little "henhhhh." You don't get the hiccups too much anymore. You have a little bit of eczema, it looks like -- a patch on the side of your thigh (or could it have been a reaction to the vaccines?). You drool A LOT, hence the bib-wearing.

You actually smile when you see Sofie le Giraffe, your chew toy.

I can make you laugh by making funny faces... sometimes.

I thank heaven that the jukebox has both a volume control and an off button.

You discovered Kitty today! I almost forgot. Kitty was curled up at the end of the bed on Ozan's side. We were playing, as usual, on the bed. We were playing "sit up" and you got an eye-to-eye look at Kitty! You were so intrigued, smiling and cooing at the cat. You talked to her for a good five minutes. Kitty came a little closer, sniffing your outstretched finger. It was, all in all, a successful meeting. I'm sure they won't all be so fortuitous.
