At 5 1/2 months, the littlest member of our bunch of Paynes has done quite a bit of growing up in the past week. For starters, she is getting her first teeth! Her two bottom teeth have almost completely poked through! Also . . .
She's mastered the art of sitting on her own!
Shhhh . . . don't tell Rooke I let her play with his cars and trucks!
She tested out a sippy cup for the first time . . . and LOVED it! Loved gnawing on it, that is.
The picture above reminded me of this one taken when we gave Rooke a sippy cup for the first time at the same age.
As if that wasn't enough, she got her first taste of infant cereal!
She did pretty good with the spoon . . .
and wanted more . . .
and more . . .
"Don't even think about taking this away from me, Woman."
All that growing up wore her out and she took one of the best naps of her life (literally!) while a babysitter was here for Ryan and I to enjoy a breakfast date. I love our little Gretchen.

Sho nuff, the little sister's got skills! I can't believe she's sitting up already - your kids are so advanced :) Hannah Lily is 13+ months and still not walking...don't worry though, I'm soaking up my last days of freedom from a toddling toddler...
Gretchen is going to be a big girl! she is cute,strong and brilliant,just like his brother!

Sitting up, sippy cups, eating?! Can't they stay babies forever?
