5 Months

Sweet Baby Boy you're now 5 months old. You are such a little mover and shaker!! You've always been a little wiggly worm but now you're getting even harder to contain. In fact the picture with the OU boots is the last one I took before you decided to dive head first out of the rocking chair....dont worry I caught you!!

This month you decided that you were done with sleep. You literally started sleeping like 6 hours a day total. You're up till about midnight and up by 5 am...and yes there is a feeding in the middle of that. And when we put you down for naps during the day you're more into the 20 minute power nap than the 1.5 hr ones you took last month. You have finally conquered the fear of loud noises!!! YEAH!! We are now free to sneeze without fear of scaring you half to death. You're so so close to sitting up by yourself, but unfortunately we're going to have to quit using the bumbo because you're reaching for everything and leaning right out of the bumbo. Your favorite things to reach for are anything you're not supposed to have...the remote, cell phones, and food off of our plates!! You also love water bottles. You are so easily amused with the crunching sound of a water bottle. You even picked up my water bottle the other day and put it in your mouth correctly!! Soon enough you'll be on to sippy cups!! Your favorite toy this month is your worm Larry! You wrestle with him, and laugh at him, and love to hear all the different sounds he makes. You're still only drinking milk, but we are contemplating a move to solids soon so that mommy and daddy can get more sleep at night. You're about 2.5 feet tall already and quickly outgrowing all of your clothes. Most of your onesies are all 9-12 months already. We are so excited that the holidays are coming up and cannot wait to celebrate with you. We love you chuy!!
