To my baby boy,
Just when I thought life couldn't get better, you turn five moths old. I know this is just the beginning but you sure have keept us on our toes already. You are full of energy and it's been so fun watching you explore and learn.
At five months, you did not have a required doctor's visit so I'm going to guess that you are around 16 lbs and 27-28 inches long. I might be completely off since you seem to be going through a crazy growth spurt and all of your pants are suddenly way too short.
You started army crawling and it's the funniest thing to watch. You are so determined to get to your toys and will drag your little body so quickly untill you get to where you want to be. You also take small breaks if needed by sitting down. Sitting in the corner of your crib has become your new favorite.
At just five months, you are pretty much best friends with your pups (well Elaine to be exact). You love to pet her and have her around all the time. She also loves to be around you and has become such a protector. Your face lights up every time you see them.
Another current obsession of yours is your walker. I was hesitant to put you in it because I didn't think you were ready, but boy was I wrong! You have so much fun in it and go crazy pressing all the buttons. I've also noticed you have this fake "cough" you do when you want attention, it's pretty funny.
You can sit outside for hours and watch the leaves as the wind hits them or the rain fall. I love how the smallest things intrigue you. Our life has a whole new meaning now that you are in it and it just keeps getting better!
Love,
Mom
