5 Months

This 5 month old little cutie is growing up!  Charlotte is all smiles and such a happy baby. 

Charlotte is now 16 1/2 pounds and 25.5 inches.  She still loves to hear her own voice and has a lot to say all the time.  At church we can hardly make it through Relief Society without her squawking her own opinion.  I try to keep her quiet but then she just squeals louder.  All of the ladies think it is so cute.  

Charlotte loves he brothers and sister.  She laughs and laughs at them especially Colby.  

Charlotte loves to put everything in her mouth.  If it is in her hands, it is in her mouth.  It is so funny; it's like her hands have a magnetic connection to her mouth.

We had Charlotte try her first apple the other day.  She loved it and just gnawed on it for awhile.  We have not started cereal or food yet with her but we will probably do that soon because she is totally ready.  We have just been lazy parents probably.  

Here are a few flashback pictures of the kids for comparison.  First a collage of all four kids eating apples for the first time at this age. Can you tell which kid is which?  

And here is a picture of Emily in these same clothes Charlotte is wearing.  Don't they look like they could be twins?  It is crazy to see the resemblance in all of the kids but especially the girls.
