Jordyn has her first ear infection! We would not have known but she has had a cough for a while and Monday morning she was practically hacking so we took her in. The doctor was surprised that she was still sleeping well and generally happy. She also had her first nasty diaper rash last week but again her mood is pretty unaffected by it. The meds seem to be working well for her ear, she has barely been coughing. We also found out she weighs 15 pounds 15 oz - time to really get her in the crib! Yes, we are bad, Jordyn is still sleeping next to us in her pack and play. We got a crib bumber for her since now she moves all around in her sleep. We frequently find her turned sideways in the pack and play. Due to the ear infection her 6 month shots were postponed an extra week.
We have also started to give Jordyn baths in the big bath tub. We put her tub in the big one because she splashes so much she was getting water all over the kitchen. Now she can splash as much as she wants, and she loves it.
And in other good news, this should probably go on the family site, but Lauren finally found a new job closer to home. She is now 20 minutes away rather than over an hour. Yay!

Finally some pictures!
Time sure does fly. Jordyn is 5 months old! She got another cold about a week and a half ago and had to go back to the doctor. She is now over 15 pounds! That means that we really have to get her out of the pack and play and into her crib. The other night she slept half the night in her crib but for the past month she has not been sleeping through the night so she spent the second half in her pack and play next to us. We read that one of the reasons she may not be sleeping through the night is because she is now really moving and concentrating so hard on it that she sort of wakes herself up and wants to move. Last night was the first in a while we didn't have to get up with her.
Jordyn has been scooching on her back for a while now but this past week she really figured out that she can get across a room that way. She had Joanne, her daycare provider, cracking up because she got herself all the way across the playroom that way. Jordyn also has rolled from her back to her tummy. We were so worried that all her milestones would be happening during the day and we would miss them but so far Jordyn has done them all at home with us. She did it for the first time at home with Lauren and the second time at daycare with Joanne. Aaron still has not seen it yet but when she becomes more consistent we have no doubt he will see lots of it. Lastly, she is starting to sit up a little. She's been jack-knifing in her car seat for a bit and she has sat up unassisted for about 30 seconds. She's definitely growing up and getting stronger!
And finally here are a few pics. This first one is from Superbowl - one month ago. Skylar and her parents came over and the girls are getting reintroduced. Aaron loves this picture because he thinks it showcases his little girls' left hook, but really Jordyn was reaching out for a hug and Skylar was having none of it.
This is her first experience with cereal. She looovvveeesss her cereal! We have also introduced green beans, which she does not like so much. She makes the best face that just says 'yuck!' and then gives a shudder like 'I can't believe I just ate that'. She starts sweet peas today and we expect that to go much better.
