Brissy Bear is 5 months old

It doesn't seem that long ago I could feel her little and big kicks in my belly.  Its almost been half a year since this little peanut completed our family.  She is the happiest more lovable baby in the world.  She is  a pure joy and can make anyones day better just by looking at her.  She smiles a huge gummy smile at everyone and giggles and laughs all the time.  She is really starting to show her personality and I think she is going to be very much like her big sister.  She seems to be very laid back and relaxed.  She is content to just hang out in her bumbo, jumper, or floor mat for a half hour or more.  We just got her a high chair and she likes to sit in that now too and play with toys.  Brooklyn of course thinks that she should be eating so she tries to throw her food onto Bristol's tray.  I did attempt to feed Bristol some cereal with a spoon since the Dr. thinks she should be eating vegetables and fruits by now but she was not having it.  She just spit it all out and made a horrible face.  She is content with her baba for now and so am I.  I do not want her to grow up any faster than she already is.  She is still only drinking about 4 ounces at a feeding so I know for sure she is not starving or she would be drinking more at each feeding. She just loves to sit and watch everyone around her.  She giggles at Brooklyn and Zoey all the time.

So at 5 months Bristol:
