Fab Five!

..Months that is!

Last Monday I was officially five months old. Mommy managed to take my pictures that day, but since it is pretty busy around here she didn't get a chance to get me all set up with the computer so I could give you my updates until today.


Here's the skinny (well because I am not...don't you love my cheeks?...squeezing allowed!)
I am really starting to do tons of rolling over. The problem is I am an expert at rolling back to front, but I rarely roll front to back. I do like playing on my belly, but at sleep times being stuck on my belly sometimes gets me down. I also tend to get my leg through the crib slats, and then I get really mad and don't go to sleep. Some of these sleeping and rolling issues are also due to the fact I don't use the swaddle anymore. I never loved it like Bridger did and kicked my way out of it a lot. I had a few nights of it being caught up over my face or around my neck and Mommy decided that it was dangerous so away it went. The danger of the swaddle is only somewhat more than the danger of my erratic sleeping of late though. I am still up a lot at night and it is totally unpredictable. Mommy and my nanny are working hard to get me on a good daytime schedule, which is supposed to result in better nights. However, I don't like to follow all the rules so even though I am doing pretty well with the daytime nonsense I party at night.

Let's see is there other big news? Yes there is! This week I tried some rice cereal. This is a few weeks earlier than Bridger when he was a baby and it is still a little too early probably. However, I keep swiping at everyone's food and not really drinking from the bottle during the day so Mommy thought is was worth a try. I am not sure I know what to do with it and have you noticed the taste!? Bridger and the 'rents eat all this yummy looking stuff and they give me that! The injustice of it all is written on my face in the video as you can see. Nevertheless Mommy will press on and give me a break for a week or two and try again. She wants me to get good at cereal before I get other stuff. We'll see if I decide to let her proceed with that plan.


Rice cereal aside I do like my little modern high chair. I enjoy playing in it while others are eating.

Before I forget, here's a picture of my with Avery my nanny share partner. We were headed out for a walk in our giant stroller.

I'll talk to you next month when there will be absolutely crazy news about achieving the half year mark.
