This has been such an exciting month. You have done so much and are getting so big. Mama and Daddy love you so much. I am just going to get into all of the great things you've been doing.
BABY STATS
Sleep: You are still going to sleep between 7:30 and 8:00 and getting up around 6:30 or 7:00. You have had a couple of rough nights, but we are figuring it out. You get up about twice a night and so long as you quickly go back down, life is good. Your naps at daycare are a little wacky still, but you're figuring it out.
Routine: You are now loving daycare, especially when you go on walks. Mama starts work on your 5 month birthday and you will start getting to school around 7:30. When you are home, you are still eating every 2.5-3 hours and taking 2-3 naps per day. We bathe you every other day and you absolutely LOVE bath time.
Feed: You are doing much better with the bottle. Mama would like if you would like you to eat more at school, but you're getting better. You have a few bottles and some cereal at school. Then at home you nurse and have some oatmeal and either squash or sweet potatoes. You LOVE sweet potatoes.
Weight: You weighed 6 lb 15 oz when you were born. You are over 20 pounds. So big. Mama took you to the store in the Moby and it was quite the workout.
Length: When you were born, you were 19.5 inches. You are over 26 inches. You are just getting bigger and bigger every day. People can't believe you're only 5 months old. You're a giant baby!
Diaper Size: We are in size 3s and fill them out.
Clothes Size: You are wearing 6-9 month clothes and some 3-6 (only a couple onesies and a few pairs of pants).
Hair Color: Your hair changes color depending on the light. Sometimes it's very blonde, sometimes it's light brown and sometimes it looks a little red. Your mullet is still going strong and dark.
Eye Color: As your jealous daddy says, you have "hideous" blue eyes. He's just bitter that your eyes aren't brown. From the moment I knew you were coming, I knew we'd have a beautiful blue eyed baby.
Funniest Moment: You laugh more and more every day. We love playing games with you to make you laugh. You also sleep on your side, all the way against your crib. It's funny to us.
Favorite Toy: You still love your jumperoo and walks in your stroller. You also love the rattle balls and all of the toys at school. There is a bouncer seat at school you love to sit in when they turn on the vibration. You also love walks in the bye bye buggy at school. And Sophie. Oh My Goodness, you LOVE Sophie. You hold her while in your carseat and chew on her face. You also put Sophie's face in your mouth and suck on it like you are nursing. It is kind of funny.
Firsts: Sitting up longer and longer each day. You rolled over for the first time. You ate your first veggies (sweet potatoes and squash) and started eating cereal at school. You are almost completely out of your 3-6 month onesies. You started sleeping on your side on 2-3-12, and on 2-5-12 you rolled over in your crib for the first time. Mama checked on you while you were napping and you were on your tummy.
You are so strong at tummy time and get your chest all the way off the ground. You babble all the time and we love hearing you talk. You continue to brighten Mama and Daddy's lives each and every day.
