- You are getting really good at sitting up. You still crash & burn sometimes, but you can hold yourself up and play with toys for at least a few minutes!
- Some days you'll roll over from tummy to back over and over like it's no big deal, and other days you just lay there like you have no idea what you're supposed to do and fuss until I roll you over myself :)
- In the morning, you love to sit in your Baby Einstein saucer and watch a Baby Einstein video, or sit in your bouncy seat and watch me clean the kitchen.
- You're all over the board with sleep. You're still in our room and usually wake up 1-2 times in 10-12 hours. Some nights you'll wake up at 2:30 and then 6:30, and other nights you sleep until 5 am and then don't wake up till 8. Those are my favorite nights :) We'll probably have to move you to your crib for good soon, so I'm savoring these last weeks with you sleeping so near to me. It's comforting to be able to peek over and see you sleeping soundly, and fall asleep to the sound of your breath (or snores!).
- You grab onto EVERYTHING! Your favorite things to grab are my hair (& pull), our lips, the remote control, Penny, your burp cloths and #1: my iPhone.
- It is so easy for me to make you laugh. All I have to do is open my eyes or mouth wide or say "boo!" and you start to giggle. Pretty much every time I look in your direction you smile at me, and it makes my heart explode every single time.
- This month we've gone on lots of adventures - to the OC Fair, playdates at the park, your first Angel game, your first time in the pool... it's so fun to show you the world!
- You're wearing size 3 diapers and size 6 months clothes.
- You don't need a paci to go to sleep at night, but you like to have one for naptime, in the car or when you're being mellow.
- You stay with dad 2 times a week while I go to work, and with grandma Suzie once a week. Grandma Suzie took you to music class the last 3 weeks and you absolutely loved it!
Cannot believe next month you will be 6 months old! How in the world did that happen?! I can't express how much we love you. Every day when I see your sweet smile I feel so grateful that you're my son and I get to be your mommy. It's been so much fun becoming a family together. I'm so happy!
