Five Months


My little man is 5 months old! He is such a big boy! He is so sweet and so spoiled. He wants to be held all the time and I acquiesce as often as I can!
Some of the things he has been up to lately:
1. Chewing. on anything he can manage to get into his mouth
2. Drooling. like mad. he soaks all his clothes if I forget his drool bib.
3. Grabbing. his feet, Eden's hair, my necklace, Jack's ears.....etc.
4. Rolling. but only half way. he get on his side and then gives up. his big body must be too much to move.
5. Not laughing. this guy is super stoic. actually he gets really happy when he sees silly faces or some blows on his tummy, but he grunts instead of outright laughing. we are trying to find that one thing that will just make him bust up.
6. Not sleeping. he is a big cat-napper still. we work on naps everyday. he is pretty good about taking 2 naps a day, but never longer than an hour. and don't get me started on his current night routine. ugh.
7. staring. he loves to watch everything around him. he can't get enough of Eden. and he likes to watch me eat. he tracks the food from plate to mouth.
8. being a love bug. he loves to cuddle and snuggle. and i love to cuddle and snuggle, so we are both happy.

La, he is getting cuter and cuter. I see an interesting mix of the two of you. They grow WAY TOO FAST. I so wish I could go back for at least a day when they were all little.

Hi Lauren! He is so cute! I am so glad he is a snuggler! My girls seem to be to preoccupied to snuggle these days! And I feel sorry for you about the night time sleeping routine! I hope he will be growing out of that sometime soon! Tell Danny and Eden Hi!!
