Five Months Old

Five months ago TODAY Camden came into this world and made it a better place!  He is such a happy little boy and just loves everything about his little life.  We love him so much and couldn't picture our lives without this little cutie!

 What's New:  Rolling over!  I don't remember Drew rolling over this much.  I have a blanket in almost every room to lay down and let him roll around.  He loves it!  He has found his feet and like to pull them closer.  He has also almost mastered sitting up on his own.  He does it but slowly bends forward after a few minutes of leans backwards.

 Interests:  He loves his brother and anything he does.  He likes to look at Sutton (our lab).  He is starting to watch us eat which is a sign that he's getting ready for food!  He also puts his hands together and play with them.

Food: Still drinking just milk.  New studies show that you don't have to do rice cereal like we did with Drew. At this point Drew was about to start foods and already had rice cereal but we are planning to wait until six months and just go straight to food.  He drinks 6 oz of milk and is back taking a bottle.  He did have a few weeks where a bottle was not his thing.  Thank goodness that changed!

Sleep:  He's getting there.  He takes a few one to two hour naps during the day and then goes to bed around 7:30.  He wakes for a feeding and then back to sleep.  He wakes one more time for a bottle around 11.  He sometimes wakes up around 2am and currently is WIDE awake and happy as can be.  Just babbles.  He then goes back to sleep and wakes up around 4:30 and then back to bed after eating for another 2.5 to 3.5 hours.  We just need the 2am to drop and the 4:30 to extend just a little.  Mommy and Daddy are tired but I know he just wants some one on one time with us.

Sizes:  He is in a size 3 diaper and wearing 3-6 months clothes.

What I love:  I love his constant smile which is now turning into giggles.  I love how he gives open mouth kisses.  I love how he loves his big brother and how his big brother loves him just as much.  I love how easy going he is for the most part and brings a smile to our faces.  We just love him oh so much.
