Five Months

Colton - you are FIVE months old!!!

What have you been up to this month???

You weigh probably around 15 lbs.

You wear size 2 diapers and 3-6 month clothes.

You usually take one nap in the morning for 45min to an hour and then a good afternoon nap from 2-3 hours.

You are a great sleeper at night. You go to bed around 7:30pm and wake between 7-8am. You schedule was completely off while we were in Memphis for thanksgiving but thankfully you got right back on easily when we came home.

You are such a happy baby all the time. You only fuss when you are tired or hungry. You are so good when someone else is holding you.

You are rolling from your belly to back but not the other way yet. I'm not rushing that at all. I like that I can put you down and you are in the same spot when I come back. You are rolling on to your side.

You are my little snuggle bug. You love to be held and are always so good.

You still love your swing and takes naps in it sometimes in the late afternoon. You are enjoying the jumperoo more and more. You will now play in there for about 20 min at a time. You like your bouncy seat too but alot of times I lay you on the floor to play with your toys and do some tummy time.

You found your toes for the first time last week! You lift your legs up and play with your feet and toes.

Ryan is getting more used to you and loves to come look for you when I get him up from his nap. He likes to lay next to you on the floor next but he's still not interacting with you very much at home. He pays more attention to you when we are out and people are ooing and awwing over you.

You have now been to visit both sets of grandparent's houses. You slept good while we were in Memphis for Thanksgiving but you were still on Cincy time (eastern time zone).

You are a pure JOY and so loved. I can hardly believe that you are almost half a year old. It feels like we just brought you home from the hospital.
