5 months old today
So here is a list of 5 month milestones that I got from my friend Stacie at the Twinkies blog. I've marked off if Miss Morgan has achieved them. The ones for which I said "sort of" means that she is working on it and only does so intermittently.

She's SITTING already? Damn. I have slow kids. :)
yeah, she sits up. Sometimes falls over backwards when she gets really excited, but for the most part she's pretty good. I put up a few pics of her sitting up an.d eating one of her toys a few days ago. What she can't do is get off her tummy once she tolls onto it. *shrug*
"rake with fingers a tiny object and pick it up in fist"? I'm not even completely sure what that is. LOL
