Five Months

Such a growing boy! Ezra's favorite new thing is the roll over. All. The. Time.  The boy hates being on his back.  He army crawls all over his crib at night, but still sleeps for 10 hours or so, so no complaints! I know it's just a matter of time before he is crawling.  He wants to so badly.  He will get up on his hands and knees and really doesn't know where to go from there.  He's about to be mobile!

We are gearing up for his six month pictures next Saturday and are hoping the weather will be good enough for some family pics outside--- perfect for Christmas cards!  In the meantime I will be coordinating outfits for us in my head to be coordinated, but not matchy.

Our growing boy loves to play peek-a-boo these days.  He only thinks it's REALLY funny right before bathtime, all other times just garner a smile.  The time before bathtime is really the best part of the day for me.  He is so happy and is usually laughing at Clay doing silly things. He loves being in the bath and his newfound love for splashing is really adding some extra fun into our nightly routine. He is really starting to find his voice and interact with us in the best ways!

Weight: Around 14.5 lbs... Just a guess.
Length: 27 in. Again, this is a guess since we haven't been to the doc in a while.
Sleep: From 9:30 pm until 7:45 am.  Once he mastered rolling over he was waking up a couple of times during the night, but he is now used to it and is back to sleeping like a champ.
Favorite Toy: Tags (our name for his little Taggies giraffe), and his excasaucer/bouncer.  He could bounce for DAYS!
Clothes Size: Sadly, I have packed away all the 0-3 month clothes and we are officially in 6 month onesies and sleepers.  He can still get away with 3 month pants since he's so slim.
Diaper Size: Pampers Swaddlers 1
Eating: Six times a day, but now has two servings of oatmeal during the day along with his bottle.  We are on to solid food, people! I'm going to start purees as soon as he hits six months.
Milestones Reached: Rolling over and over and over, balancing on his hands and knees.  Somewhat of an army crawl (sometimes it's backwards).

Thanks for reading.  And of course-- here are some new photos of our little man!
