5 months here we come.

 
Am I supposed to sit up, like Mickey?

 
How about grabbing his foot?  Is this okay?

 
Oh, no?  Grabbing my foot instead?

 
Wow, a wardrobe change and all...sure, that's good for a laugh.



 
Okay, enough of the poses, I'm hungry!

 
But this foot is calling my name.

 
Oh, and so is this one.

 
Okay, enough of Mickey...just check me out :)

Oh, there are just too many pictures to choose from, as you can tell!  Reid is getting to be such a big boy and we are already making note of his 5 month.  It's crazy how fast time goes.  Each month that rolls around, I find myself reminiscing on Micah's monthly post as well.  And although I was looking at his 5th month post today, I was quickly brought back to reality with my almost 28 month old...I just can't believe he's getting so big.  And by "he's" I mean both Micah and Reid!

We headed out to the doctor today for a few shots (no official doctor visit) but I was about to get his weight - coming in at 16 pounds, right in the 50%. 

Things to remember this month:
  • how you started rolling both ways
  • how you love time in your exersaucer and have started also loving the jumparoo
  • how you grunt really loud when eating your toys, and it's hard for me to tell if you're hurting yourself, frustrated or just enjoying yourself
  • how you have started putting yourself to sleep without Momma's (or Daddy's) help...and although that means crying sometimes, you are figuring it out
  • how much you love looking at your hand, Mommy's hand, Daddy's hand...basically any hand that comes across your face
  • how you get a death grip on any hand in your grasp (in a good way, of course!)
  • how you love grabbing faces
  • how you have begun taking interest in your foot...even putting it in your mouth at least one time, to my knowledge
  • how your face just lights up when your Mom or Dad walk in the room
  • how your face also lights up when your big brother is dancing all around you and giving you lots of attention
  • how you are getting really close to sitting up
  • how much you smile and giggle...you are ticklish, and super expressive, bringing us much joy!
We love you sweet Reid!  Stop growing up so fast... but thank you for providing us such happiness in our family.
