5 Months

This little guy is 5 months. It really goes so much faster with kid number two. His schedule is pretty much the same as it was at 4 months. Still sleeping through the night (wakes between 5-7 for a quick feeding and then back to bed until 8:30), but I can tell he is getting close to dropping his third nap so that will probably happen in the next month or two and then he will have two longer naps. 

He is SO happy and smiley. He loves to read Pat the Bunny. He smiles and giggles when I show it to him. He loves to see his brother and is fascinated by his brothers car track. James is working on sitting up and can go a few seconds on his own before he falls over. He is loving his feet right now. He plays with his toes and loves grabbing his feet. When he is having awake time he will lay on the floor and play with toys, sit in the exersauucer, bumbo or chair and be pretty content. He is loves his baby bjorn when we go out places. 

He is still taking his naps in his bouncy chair so my goal this month is to get him napping in his crib because he is getting to heavy for the bouncy chair! He is still wearing 3-6 month clothing and it is starting to get just a little small, but he probably doesn't quite fit into the 6-9 month quite yet. Wearing a size 2 diaper, but is quickly getting into a size 3. We are starting to have too many blow outs! 

He had a bad cold last month (thank you older brother!) but was still a happy camper even when he was stuffy and coughing and even had a small fever one day. He has no teeth and no big teething signs yet. Of course he puts everything in his mouth, but his gums are not red and I don't feel or see anything trying to come through yet. Luke already had teeth at this age so that is different for me. We have not started solid foods yet because I am too lazy, but he is getting ready so probably around 6 months.
