Five Months Old!

Really? Do we really have a FIVE MONTHS OLD?!

Oh, this sweet boy is just so much fun! And he is growing and learning every day. We enjoy watching him figure out new stuff and just play with him. 

 Here are some fun facts about our growing boy:

• moved into size 2 diapers
• last dr appt weighed 13 lbs, 3 oz
• still in 3 month clothes but I could see you getting into some 3-6 soon
• has started recognizing the dogs and reaching for them - love this!
• You are ticklish under you neck and on your sides - mommy loves to tickle you and make you laugh

• You talk so much, especially in the morning
• We moved you to your own crib in your own room this month. Mommy didn't think she was ready but one night, I just put you down and you have done great! 
• You rolled over the other night in your crib, in your sleep. That is about the only time you have rolled over. You just have no interest. You keep pushing your leg up but can't quite get that roll on. 
• You are taking about 3 naps a day and wake up, usually, once a night.
• I think you may be starting to teeth. Your drooling has gotten crazy and you are fussier than normal (which is totally not you). But we don't see any teeth breaking through yet. (Which I'm secretly glad for because I love your gummy smile.)
• We have started "teaching" you sign language. We are only using the sign for 'milk' right now but will eventually start using more.

Sweet, little boy, you are getting so big everyday. We love loving on you and you make us so happy. Even though we are tired some mornings, we are so excited to hear your "talking" and see your smiles every morning. You are so much fun and we are loving this exploring and learning stage. We love you and feel blessed everyday to have you with us!
