5 Month Update

I can't believe Jaliyah is 5 months old already! That means she is almost 6 months, which means she is almost a year, which means she is almost 16, and then moving out! :( How sad..

Jaliyah can..

• Push up with straight elbows during tummy time.
• Rock back and forth and scoot forwards.
• Sit by herself for about 2.5 seconds (lol).
• Throw toys across the room/drop things and look for them - She knows they don't just disappear now.

She finally enjoys her bumbo seat now that she can support herself well. She likes to sit in it and watch out the window (Note to self: get bumbo seat tray). She is growing so quick, I need to invest in a scale too, but I think she weighs around 17.5 lbs now.

I am buying some veggies today, we will try them tonight! I think I am going to get squash - how exciting! I know I say this all the time but it is seriously so amazing to see the new things she can do each and every day.

Labor Day :)

I'm sure most new mom's are like this, but this weekend I kept saying "OH! This is Jaliyah's first _____!" Everyone would laugh at me lol But really, it was her first Labor Day, her first boat ride and her first beach trip! So I was quite excited and carried my camera all day.

On Saturday we went up to my dad's cottage for the day with my brother and new niece, Ariana. It was rainy and cold so we couldn't do much but just hang out - but it was still fun!


Sunday we just hung out with daddy and Jaliyah's sisters and went to the park, it was a much needed relaxing day for the both of us.

Monday was the best day by far! We went to my Aunt's cottage, where I grew up, and had a blast. It was kind of cloudy but we still made the best of it. Jason AND Jaliyah had their first boat ride - both of them loved it. The boat ride put Jaliyah to sleep, so cute.


Her first boat ride!
She had fallen asleep so she was zipped into Daddy's jacket to stay away from the wind lol


And it was Jaliyah's 5 month birthday! ♥

The Rattles Review and GIVEAWAY!

I was approached by The Musebox about a new family-friendly band, The Rattles. With a fresh, modern fusion of classic rock and power pop, similar to The Beatles, They Might Be Giants, and The Monkees, this colorful quartet has set themselves apart from the average children's music group by creating a listening experience that parents and adults can enjoy as well. Similar to the music of Yo Gabba Gabba, this project is about creating music EVERYONE can groove out to!


When I got the CD in the mail I was super excited (I love kids music, don't judge lol)! I immediately put it in and loved it. Jaliyah loves listening to music and The Rattles definitely caught her attention; we danced together and now we have "music time" every day after her afternoon nap! I was pleasantly surprised that I enjoyed it as well, it's hard to find music that's equally enjoyable for adults and children.
The website is fun too! I checked it out and not only can you purchase the CD but there is music videos, pictures, printable coloring pages, and games! How cool!
