Life at 5 Months

Here is a look at Jay at 5 months!

He's still sleeping great-from 10 p.m. to 8 a.m. with a few naps during the day.

Enjoying breakfast and dinner in the highchair and foods include rice cereal, green beans, peas, sweet potatoes, squash, carrots, apples, pears, peaches, mixed veggies, and mixed fruits. Everything has been easy and well received by our little guy!

He is of course still rolling, busy and discovering more everyday!

He is curious about everything- remotes, phones, cameras--but it has become really difficult to capture a "smile" more often we get this inquisitive look.

 As you can see, he is figuring out how to get where he wants to go and grab things. He is inching and scooting around, using his face as another appendage, thus the bumps around his chin.
Drool+ scooching on your face=irritation.

He has found those cute little feet at the end of his legs and he could give away most of his toys if he could just play with his feet most days.

Other fun facts about this age-
* 2 teeth along the bottom- 1st November 29, 2nd December 4th
* Size 3 diapers
* Most of our 6 month clothes have been packed away- 9 month clothes and 12-24 month socks
* Weight is right around 19 pounds
* Has become quite the entertainer- his routine includes razz and motorboat, fake cough, and repeating vowel sounds- "I Love You" and "E-I-E-I-O" are his faves. He will look around and if no one is talking he will start his routine to get attention or make you laugh. It is AWESOME.
* We have packed away the swing and bouncy seat- Jay is serious about trying to sit up and has been for weeks, we stopped using both a few days after Thanksgiving.
* Tri-pod sitting and now can push himself back upright while sitting after lowering down.
* To end all debate, he is in fact a coppertop--it has been back and forth but the red has definitely taken over.
