Last week Samantha passed the five month mark. It is amazing to me how much she learns and develops every day. It is as though every few weeks she is a whole new baby. I try not to dwell on how fast it is going by because it really is special to watch her grow and learn.
She is finally rolling over now - my Aunt Paula said that Samantha would never roll over because nobody ever puts her down and boy is that true. But she is starting to get heavy for me to hold all the time and I think that helped to encourage me to lay her down more and get her rolling! She can also sit up on her own for a little bit.
Samantha is very ticklish and she laughs in delight when I tickle her. She has also quickly fallen for Javier the pug. She thinks he is the greatest thing around. She has been known to snap right out of crying to give Javier a big smile. He is not as fond of her but I'm sure he will come around when she can throw him some food.
When we were in Nebraska I noticed that she really enjoyed interactive toys with music and lights. We set up this jumper at my parents' house and although she hasn't gotten the hang of jumping, she definitely enjoys spinning around and playing with all the fun, musical toys. I posted some new photos here, I need to work on getting pictures from our trip to Nebraska.
