5 Months

Whhaaaat!?

How can this handsome little guy be 5 months already!?

He is getting too big and growing up too fast!

I feel like we are going to blink and he'll be 5.

There are a few good things about him turning 5 months, though...

He is So.Much.Fun right now.

I'm sure I'll say that every month from here on out but it's true.

He has become the most happy, mellow, easy baby.

If you talk to him or even look in his direction, he gives you big smiles and gets so excited.
He scrunches his nose up and smiles when he gets excited.

He is pretty good at just laying on his mat or jumping in the Jumperoo and just entertaining himself.

By entertaining, I mean jumping, sucking on his hands, or trying to chew on anything in his reach.

He is always wearing a bib because he drools all day long... his bib or clothes are soaked in a few hrs

He really only fusses or whines when he gets really hungry or he gets lonely and needs attention.

He definitely lets you know when he wants you to come watch him jump and to talk to him.

He is sleeping through the night.  We put him down around 7 or 7:30 and he wakes up at 6:30 or 7am.

He'll usually wake up and just lay in there awake for ~15 min, waiting for us to come get him.

Brian says he heard Braxton say MAMA, so clear, while he was in there waiting this morning.
{Wishful thinking that he actually meant it?}

He is still so close to rolling from his back to his tummy but we're still not there yet.

He just found his feet.

He is very ticklish... this is usually how we get most of his laughs.
When he can't stand the tickling anymore, he'll grunt or squeal.

We grow more crazy about this little nugget every single day.

Please don't get any bigger, OK!?
