I can't believe that Amelia is already 5 months old. She had a very busy 5th month... we started swimming lessons, took our first plane ride... train ride... bus ride... cab ride, celebrated cousin Ella's birthday, discovered her love of water bottles (definitely gets that from Zach) and a visit from Uncle Ted. Oh and she pitched her first real fit. Her little personality is really starting to come through and I'm getting a bit nervous. She's a girl who knows what she wants, but as of now has no means to get it. She still doesn't cry much (although that's been on the rise since our return from Chicago), but she lets it known that she's not happy with a series of "MMMMMMs".
