If there is one thing that defines Zoe at five months, it would be the increased joy she garners every day since she has discovered her feet/toes. There's not a trip to the changing table that doesn't start with me unlocking her grip on her feet (note the finger impressions upper-right below) so I can get to the offending diaper. The intensity with which she focuses on grabbing her little heels and toes seems to have given her a new leash on life -- no longer the helpless little bag of flesh flailing around with no ability to entertain herself. Too bad it's not enough of a security blanket to help sooth her to sleep!She is also increasingly entertained by her big sister and her antics. Hannah expends much energy dancing and goofing around in the hopes of eliciting some giggles from her little sister. And it works every time. Zoe LOVES watching her sister -- be it in the car on the way to/from preschool, while she's eating her lunch, or when she's dancing frantically around the room like the whirling dervish that is Hannah. It has been very cute to watch them become "best friends" so early on. But when Hannah's not around.... at least she's got those toesies!
