What's Up with Halia

Well this little lady is a month shy of her half-birthday. In simpler words, she is now 5 months old!!! 
Ooooiiii! Its going by too fast!

She is a pro at:

- being cute.
- holding her own bottle.
- scooting and rolling over and over and getting stuck under the couch, under her swing, under her jumper gym thingy, or against the tv cabinet.
- eating mommys yummy homemade baby food.
- giggling.
- bathtime.
- sucking her toes.
- drooling and soaking everything that comes near her mouth.
- getting everyone's attention by crying, laughing or squealing.
- wrapping daddy around her little finger.

She is doing good at:
- army crawling.
- putting her binky in her mouth.
- getting those two front bottom teeth to come out.
- grabbing and scrunching our face, especially the nose.

She needs to work at:
- sleeping on her own.
- sleeping through the night.
- taking naps without being held.
- sitting.
- loving (or even just liking) her car seat.
- saying mama (Hyrums said "dada" first so she needs to say "mama" first so Mav and I are even).
- telling mommy EXACTLY what she wants instead of just crying about it.

Although it may take 21 years for her to be a pro on that last one, maybe even more.

According to our house scale she is 17 lbs 4 oz! What a chunksters!




She has a special loving look for Hyrum and it is pretty sweet. She is starting to really interact with him and it is really great to see.

Her official nickname is Heeya or Heeya Mia since that is what Hyrum calls her. She can be quite a handful sometimes but I think I am just destined to have wild children.
