At 5 months...

Olivia drools a LOT, blows bubbles, and chews on anything she can stuff in her mouth.



She screams for fun (sometimes she sounds like a hawk screeching; other times, like a vocalist doing warm-up exercises).



She giggles, but rarely--only if someone is exceptionally funny.



She is starting to get a bit wary of losing her mother in a crowd.



She's trying hard to roll over.



She enjoys spending time in her Saucer.





And she just experienced her first haircut. Why? Because we have a strict family rule: NO MULLETS! And she was about to break that rule.





The sisters and I tried the homestyle cut

(See what I mean about blowing bubbles?)

but before long, we knew it was time to call in the expert: Aunt Jen!

(See what I mean about chewing on things?)

(She looks kind of nervous, doesn't she?)

But I think Olivia likes her new style!
