5 Months

{July 19th}

Little peanut found his feet just after 4 months.
He loves to grab and chomp on them.


He is loud!
He jabbers and hollers and loves to talk.


He is a good napper.
Braxton would take small cat naps until he was well over 6 months.
Everett will usually sleep a good hour for each nap, sometimes more.

We tried him out in the jumperoo and I think he's starting to like it.
He was pretty weirded out the first time but by the third time he got in to it and has started to figure out how to use his legs and jump.


His hands are still in his mouth at least 80% of the time.

He sleeps through the night about 80-90% of the time.
Still gets up around 2-3am sometimes.

Can roll from his tummy to back and vice versa,
although isn't proficient in either yet.


He doesn't really care to sit in his Bumbo.
He arches his back and can almost pop all the way out on his own.

We still can't tell if his eyes will be blue or brown.
They are a little of each color still... maybe his will be mixed.

 

He makes the most intense eye contact.
If he can get you to look back, he loses it and goes crazy smiling!


He grabs his bottle and pulls it to his mouth when he's hungry.
He can also hold it himself for just a bit.


He is mostly on formula but I still nurse him in the morning and at night.
Not sure how much he's getting but I can't give it up all the way just yet.

He is still such a good snuggler!
He can put himself to sleep on his own without any crying.
I know we should really take advantage of that since most people sleep train to get their kids to do it, but I just love rocking him to sleep every night and having him snuggle up on me.


He loves to blow spit bubbles and make spit sounds.

We gave him oatmeal for the first time today and he loved it!
Was a little unsure what to do the first few bites, but then would grab my hand and pull the spoon into his mouth.
