Scarlett is 5 months old this week! She is just over 12 pounds and about 23.5 inches. She smiles a lot and gabs on and on in her own language. She has discovered toys and likes to bat at things and grab anything she can reach. We are working on tummy time; she can steady her own head when we hold her upright, and likes to look all around. She is sleeping well, about 8 hours at night and two long naps during the day.
It has been three months since her tumor was discovered. We're so proud of her, and so grateful for each day, week and month we have had. I can't wait to see what the next month brings!
I think my boy is one month older exactly--he will be six months on the 16th. I remember reading your first post about the tumor, and I am so thrilled for you guys that she has made such miraculous (literally) progress! Love the picture and you will love the sixth month!!!
Happy 5th Month Scarlett! Don't forget the cake! lol For the first year, we celebrated every month with a small cake for the two of us since we didn't know what each month would hold for us so when a month would go by we celebrated it. We just celebrated her 1st birthday a few weeks ago and she is about to turn 13 months this saturday and we are debating doing the same thing during this year. We will see. I think with each month she turns, celebrate it, even if its just a twinkie with a candle in it, it's still a good milestone and for Scarlett it's a wonderful milestone.
It's so wonderful to hear/read that, since all you've been through, you get to LOOK FORWARD to the next month! Scarlett is such a strong baby girl, and with every day, week, and month that passes, she will continue to amaze everyone. Happy 5 month birthday Scarlett!!!!!
Thank you for sharing your BEAUTIFUL baby girl with us.... Happy 5 Months Scarlett.... Here is to hundreds of more months!!!! Big Hugs from Colorado....
Happy 5 months Butterfly, you are truly beautiful inside & out. This picture has made me smile. I continue to pray for her miraculous healing that only GOd can provide. Your family is awesome & I love each update. Sending love, hugs & prayers from Alabama! Jennifer Sargent
What a beautiful picture! Scarlett is an amazingly strong little girl. We are so thankful for the months God has already put her here and the many more months too. Come We love seeing her pictures.
Happy 5 months sweet baby girl!!! Scarlett looks so adorable in her pics!!! Brings tears to my eyes. She is progressing wonderfully! Scarlett could teach my 6 month old son a thing or two on taking 2 long naps during the day. You guys are amazing. You are always on our minds. Sending love and prayers from The Cozza's in CT!
Happy 5 months Scarlett! I've been following your amazing journey from the beginning! I'm so proud of your strengh! Keep going and giving us that beautiful smile!
Hooray for the fab 5!!!!!! I admire you all and have started following your story religiously!!! What an inspiration you are to me! My DD doesn't have the problems you do, but reading your story makes me grateful and thankful for each and every day I have with her!! I can't believe Scarlett is almost heavier than my almost 7 month old!!! She's only 12.5 pounds at 6.5 months!!
Yay for Scarlett! She looks absolutely beautiful! She looks like a healthy, joyful baby. You and your husband deserve so much credit for her being that way.
Happy five months sweet little girl! She is beautiful and I am so happy to read how well she is progressing.Good job getting her to sleep, my son didn't sleep all night till after one year!
Happy 5 months beautiful girl!!! My little one turns 4 months today and I keep her updated on Scarlet's progress, we're both excited each time you post pictures!
Praise God!!! I just read your story. It's great to know that we serve such a wonderful and loving God. He is still performing miracles each and every day. I am praying for your family. I am praying that God gives you the strength that you need to be strong for your little Angel. God Bless!!!
I am new to your blog, but it is an inspiration to me. Youre family has amazing love and strength that helps pull you through the touch times. Your daughter is as well extrememly beautiful. I believe God saw you two as angels and wanted to give you one of his gifts because he knew how well youd take care of her. My daughter was just recetly diagnosed with WS, which is not the same but as well it is a struggle every day. Anything small is a major accomplishment. I will continue to pray for healing and peace for you and your family.
