5 months

And today, my Payton is 5 months old

About 14 months ago, when I found out I was pregnant, I thought my life was just about gonna be over... having 2 kids 13 months apart can put a damper on life and I was just gonna be stuck at home all day every day! But the Lord blessed us with our sweet little Payton. She is such an easy baby! I know that God made her that way so that I could still (somewhat) have a life. She is so easy going and happy. She loves to talk and her little talky voice is so stinkin sweet!! She is getting so big!!

-loves to eat real food... and half the time, you cant hardly shovel it in fast enough!

- recognizes bottles

- tries with all her might to hold her bottle.. just doesnt quite have a tight enough grip on it.

- Has her hands in her mouth ALL day long and drools like a maniac!

- Holds stuff so well

- Can almost get her paci in her mouth all by herself.

- love LOVES her bouncer. She has already used it more than Madelynn ever did.

- Spends alot of her time playing on the floor with her big sister.

- Sits up well in the boppy.

- still has some funky hair that now most of the time, lays down. Her hair is also darker... and I think that she has lost what she was gonna lose.

-18 lbs.

- Is always smiling and laughing

and 5 months ago, she graced us with her presence.

I am soooooooooooooooooo so very grateful that I got pregnant so soon after Madelynn was born!! I wouldn't have it any other way! I absolutely could not imagine our life without Madelynn having a sister.... or Payton being an only child. I cant imagine them not being 13 months apart. Its the best decision God ever made for us!!! I hope that when this next little Rose comes along, that I can say this again!!
