Jillian-5 months

Can my baby really be 5 months old? I am seriously asking myself this question over and over again because I truly can't believe it. What an amazing and blessed past few months we have been living. The lack of sleep and constant spitting up (we are talking three wardrobe changes a day for her and me) are nothing compared to the joy that little Jillian brings to our family. She is getting cuter everyday and her little personality is really starting to come out. I think she might be a little shy because she sometimes acts embarrassed when she notices that you're looking at her. Staying true to the girl in her, she is a little squealer. She has started smiling and laughing a lot, and I can not tell you how much it lights me up inside to hear that sweet giggle. Another milestone that Jillian has mastered is rolling over. She has been a little rolly poly for several weeks now, so I can no longer lay her down in one place with the guarantee that she will be waiting for me in the same spot when I return. Lauren tells her all the time, "Stay on your blanket Jilly". Cracks me up! We are working on sitting up, but she is still pretty shaky. Jillian has also recently discovered her feet. She can entertain herself for quite sometime with her new found appendages. It's pretty adorable when she sucks on her little toes, but not at 3 in the morning when her feet are entertaining her so much that she can't sleep. So this is what the little Reed has been up too lately. Lots of growing and changing, everyday it seems like, and so much happiness and joy. Praise the Lord for an amazing past 5 months.
