Elizabeth is already 5 months… time flies when you’re having fun.  She knows how to roll over, but she rarely ever does it.  She’s so very close to rolling over from back to front now. 

We’ve started giving her rice cereal a bit, as she keeps waking up, starving to death.  She’s really not ready for it because she still swallows by sticking out her tongue, but we’re despirately trying to fill her tummy before bed.  She’s still not quite 14 lbs yet, but close.

Elizabeth is very alert.  She can recognize her name and her eyes follow us around the room when we’re walking around.   Of course, her head is very steady, but she isn’t even close to sitting up by herself yet. 

With most physical milestones, she seems to be about a month behind (the amount of time she was born early) but she seems right on schedule or ahead of schedule for everything else like laughing or cooing or showing basic intelligence.
