5 Months

Where does the time go... my little boy is 5 months old today. It is so hard to believe it. He has brought so much joy and happiness to us and we are so thankful everyday that he is here. Here is what he is up to these days:
-he takes at least two naps a day (usually 3) and goes to bed between 7:30 and 8pm.
-he sleeps around 11 hours then eats and almost every day goes back to sleep for another hour.
-he is a big boy- I held him today on the scale and he was 17.5lbs
-he is wearing size 3 diapers
-he wears some 3-6 months clothes but is starting to wear his 6-9 months more
-he LOVES to be outside; swinging, rocking, or going for a stroller ride
-he loves anything to do with water; baths, swimming etc
-he "talks" all the time- cooing, smiling, sometimes squealing. He also makes a lion sound and has started spitting or blowing bubbles and sticking out his tongue and then laughing (we wonder where he gets that from)
-he is such a boy... he loves trucks, tractors, going to watch Pops softball games, etc
-he is still not rolling over, he has done it once on the bed but he was already on his side. He can get all the way on his side then he gives up... his legs are just too chubby
-he is holding his head and chest up great on his tummy but still does not love tummy time
-he can sit up with just a little help and now sits in the shopping carts and high chairs at restaurants if he is not too sleepy
-he has the sweetest personality and is so laid back we just love him so much
-his favorite time of the days is the mornings- he is such a morning person
