Five Months with Tessa

I can't believe Tessa is less than a month away from her half birthday. It truly doesn't feel like five months have passed since she was born. Nothing significantly new to share.  I keep checking for teeth, but none as of yet. She has gotten more comfortable being on her tummy and likes to play with toys in reach. She developed a yeast infection underneath her neck, which spread to her upper chest and back, but after her pediatrician prescribed some topical cream, it cleared up within a week.  She nurses six times a day with her first feeding anywhere between 6 and 7 am.  We recently moved up her last feeding to 8:15-8:30 pm, instead of putting her down at 8 & waking her up at 9 to nurse, which gives her four naps throughout the day. I can't wait to start giving her solid foods. Infact, we're waiting for my mother to get into town before the inaugural feeding. I'm thinking bananas or avocados. She wears size 2 diapers, 3-6 month clothing, and tipped the scales at 14 pounds, 10 ounces.
