The Leopold Family: 5 months old

Elizabeth turned five months old yesterday the 5th of March. I wish these days would fall on weekends so I could get some good pictures of her but as it falls, I get pictures with a blank stare. Elizabeth has definitely hit a growth spurt and is becoming so much fun. She is developing her own little personality and even though she might look like Greg, I think she gets alot of her personality from her mom! Here are a few things our little baby is doing at 5 months:

loves to sit up and has been doing really well by herself... won't be long before she is sitting up on her own!
still hates to be on her stomach. I am not sure if she just gets mad because she wants to look around or what but there is no leaving her on the floor to play any more because she will just roll over on her stomach and get mad!
We still haven't figured out what color her eyes are going to be... green or brown. Greg has green eyes but I have brown and everyday they look different. I am sure they will turn brown like mine but you never know!
Our little girl did not want to eat rice cereal. That being the case, I decided to try oatmeal cereal and she eats that a lot better. I have decided to try and give her some fruits and vegetables also but that just started this week. I was reading that there was no scientific proof that starting with cereal was best and since our little angel doesn't want cereal, food seemed to be the best. I did by a few jars of baby food but I will also be making some baby food too. Right now she is eating cereal and fruit in the morning, a vegetable at lunch, and cereal and vegetable in the evening. She is getting better at it everyday.
Has started really "talking" to us. It is so funny and we love the screeching and "empty" sounds she makes.
HATES and I mean HATES to ride in the car. I don't know what I can do to make this better but this has to be the most annoying thing right now! She is fine right up until I shut the door of the car and then it is scream time. I always try to plan my trips around her nap time so then she might fall asleep!
She is doing so well sleeping at night. Goes to bed about 7:30pm and sleeps until 5am. She will get a little fussy during the night but never wake up, we just put her paci back in and she is out!
She loves to play in the exercisaucer. She has even learned to turn her self in it so she plays with all the toys on it. She gets so excited when she is playing in it.
She is such a calm little thing most of the time but just the last week she has really started to be a wiggle worm.
Loves to be naked! Take her clothes off when she is screaming and she will instantly become quiet.
Loves bathtime! I think that has become everyone's favorite time of day because she will just splash and screech. It is actually pretty funny.
Loves to be sang too, or any kind of music/lighted toy. I think she tries to sing back!
One thing that always makes me laugh is now when it is time for a bottle, you better not show it to her or she will freak out. She will try and grab it and whine until she can put it in her mouth. So funny. Now that she is doing really good holding her bottle, I might start trying to give her a sippy cup. I can't wait for the day of no more bottles! :)

I know I have missed lots of things Elizabeth is doing now but it is so hard to remember all the little things. She is growing so much. Here is her "photo shoot" from her 5 month birthday...
