MJ 5 Months

MJ is five months old today. In some ways it seems like she should be a year old and others I can't believe she is already five months.

As you can see in the picture she is already as tall as the port-a-crib is wide. She is wearing a 6-9 month outfit. This is just so weird to me as with the other kids about this time we are FINALLY moving them up to 3-6 month clothing. She really is going to be our tall one.

She loves it when you play with her. She loves Patty Cake and riding the horse like the others have. She also likes being in the saucer now and sometimes can get it to rotate. She loves to grin REALLY big when she first wakes up in the morning. It just starts my day out right.

MJ has started grabbing hair, and she has a fantastic grip. She seems to really enjoy Henry right now. Whenever he is in charge of keeping her from crying she smiles a lot at his dancing and singing. All the kids are just loving having her around.

She has really turned on the drool. She is also good at raspberries. She also has this cute little growl she does. I love it. I will try to get it on video.  She can roll over but mostly does it when she should be going to sleep therefore making it hard to go to sleep.  I am sure she would do it more often but I don't have many places I can lay her on the floor to play.  Soon.

She also likes to look at ANYTHING that produces light. Whenever I burp her and our room is dark, she will contort her body just so she can turn and look at my clock.

She is crazy and we all love her tons!

Guestroom drywall

Should be the last one for today.




















In the middle is where the kitchen will be.
Top left and then clockwise:
The closet closest to the window, a little of the other closet, and the new fuse box
Full look of the other closet and part of the doorway (such an exciting picture)
The shower (wow, another great one)
Full shower area
The post is on the right of the picture and you are looking at the outside of the guest bathroom
The wall between the two windows
Another look of the bathroom

I know, totally exciting but things are coming together somewhat quickly now.

Den Drywall

On the left is the window we created in the wall to open up the room. On the right is the really weird area that is now just a nice rectangle and they used to extend the duct work into the guest room. LOVING IT

Laundry room Drywall

Starting top left and going clockwise:
The closet
The shelf behind the washer and dryer
The rest of the wall behind washer and dryer, see the dryer vent?
And the little on the wall WAY above the washer and dryer. There was a pipe that stuck out in the corner so our awesome contractor wanted to clean it up. He takes pride in his work and thinks of all these little things.

Drywall in Bathroom/stairs

By the stairs where the new railing will be, the new doorway to the bathroom, where the door was and we will extend the brick and the doorway into the laundry room.

Discovery

Not a big exciting one but this is what was under the chair rail. I keep going back and forth between liking it and not liking it. Doesn't matter though, it's going away!
