5 months

Scott just passed his 5 month old mark this week, so I wanted to post about what he is doing! He is the master roller: front to back, back to front... to get to toys and places! He also does an army crawl type scoot and gets himself going in circles, inching forwards or backwards and will end up in a whole new place if you let him play long enough. He is getting much better at self entertaining, and now that he has his own room, he can go on and on talking to his toys and playing.
I put him in his room just last night, and noticed that he had gotten himself up on his knees!!!! He's gonna be mobile before I know it!

He sits up for a minute... as long as he is balancing himself and doesnt get too excited about anything and start to wiggle. In that case, its all over! He talks! yells, that is: all the time! He makes funny faces as he tries to get his tongue and lips in the right position for certain noises to come out. He is eating cereal, and sleeping from 9-7 most nights! At 4 months, he weighed in at 19 lbs 1 oz, and at 5 months he is still under 20 lbs, so I think he has slowed the weight gain down just a bit! His hair is starting to grow longer, and the fuzz that he has now sticks straight up! The outfit you see in the above picture is officially a 12 month size!!!!! So besides the fact that i moved from UT to AZ and the 12 month clothes i have are all winter clothes, he wont be able to wear a single thing because its still 100 degrees here! I can always hope he stays the same size for the next 6 months... or Ill have to time our next one so that SOMEONE can wear these clothes someday.

We love Scott! He is such a happy baby! The only cries are when hes hungry! He can be tired and hot and in the middle of a crowded theme park, and he will still give smiles and be chill! We are so blessed to have such a wonderful spirit in our home, and we are loving watching him grow into a strong, handsome little dude! We hope you are enjoying the show as much as we are!

I love the picture of Scott sitting in his high chair! The little smile on his face is so sweet! How is the new house and everything?

I can't believe that he is so old. Stop growing already. The video of him and Sam is priceless!
