Five months old


You are 5 months old today! I can't believe how fast you are growing--part of me wants you to stay a baby forever, but your daddy and I love watching each new thing you do! This month...

-You started eating solid food! You have tried rice and oatmeal cereals, green beans, peas, squash, carrots, sweet potatoes, bananas, apples, pears, and peaches. So far, we have not found anything that you will not eat, and I hope you stay that way!

-You went on your first boat ride.

-You were baptized.

-You can roll over from tummy to back and back to tummy, but you don't do it constantly yet.

-You love to scoot across the room on your back. Your feet are always moving, and we cannot leave you alone on the bed or changing table anymore!

-Your two bottom teeth started coming in a couple of weeks ago, and we can see them when you smile now!

-I CHERISH any time that you will cuddle with me on the couch or in the bed. Usually you like to be going, going, going...but every now and then you will still snuggle with me!

People are always telling us what a good baby you are, and it is so true! You are so easy-going and content. When you wake up from a nap or in the morning, you just lay there and laugh and talk to yourself until we come get you. I can walk in the room and talk to you before I leave for work, and then you will still just stay in your crib and smile until Daddy comes to get you. The only time you really fuss is when you are starving, or when you see your bottle, and when you are tired. We love you SO much and feel very blessed!
