5 Months

Whew....where does time go?  On my birthday, March 17th, Sawyer also had a milestone...he turned 5 months old!  It is so amazing to see all of the things he does at this stage.  He is what we like to call roley-poley-oley..he is so busy rolling all over the place!  He is almost sitting up by himself, and almost has the start to crawling...he gets his butt up there and shakes it and tries to move his arms...it's hilarious!  Some other milestones we have made are starting to eat solid foods (which is getting better every day) so far he has eaten peas, green beans, carrots, bananas, and the rice cereal with fruit.  He still loves to chatter and blow raspberries...he loves to talk as he gets his diaper changed.  He still has the best attitude and rarely fusses and usually only does when he is hungry.  I love to watch him smile and make him laugh...he does this all the time!  It is such a wonderful feeling to see our baby so happy...I only hope he knows how happy he makes us!
Every morning when we wait for him to wake up we are always greeted with a huge smile and his arms and legs moving around in excitement!  If he only knew that that little moment makes our whole day....gosh it's amazing!  We have gotten down a pretty good schedule in the morning and evening...he usually wakes between 6:45 and 7:00am and we feed him some cereal and then the rest of his bottle, then it's play time with the Grandma's and whatever they have planned with him that day, then when I get home again he usually has a bottle around 4:00-4:30 and we play some more...in addition to making dinner and getting my lunch packed for the next day.  At dinner time we have been putting him in his high chair and we eat, then we feed him again around 7:00...then it's bottle washing and getting them filled for the next day, cleaning up dinner and playing with little guy.  He tends to fall asleep around 8:00-8:30pm and then he gets 1 more bottle at 9:30 then back to sleep he goes until 6:45-7:00am again and then we start all over....it makes for a crazy busy time in our life right now...but we wouldn't change a thing!!!  We absolutely love the life God has given us!!




During the 5 month photo shoot...I was cracking up!  It was so hard getting Sawyer to keep from putting the 5 month sticker in his little mouth....guess it's the sign of the stage we're in...everything goes in his mouth!  So these were the only pics that I have without him eating the sticker.  Love him!!!!
