So much is going on in your fifth month. You are finally starting to sleep more. I didn't think that was ever going to happen. We went so long without any sleep that now if you sleep longer than 4 hours, we think of it as a miracle. You still take a few cat naps during the day, and are not on any type of schedule.
You are starting to blow raspberries, make some consonant noises (nnnnnaaaa.mmmmmmm...dddddd) and you found your feet. You have mastered rolling over and I've heard (but I've not seen) that you can roll from tummy to back. You love putting anything in your mouth and kicking your legs.
I can start to see a glimps of your personality come through. You love taking things in. You are very alert and hate to miss anything. You LOVE getting attention and make it known when you are NOT the center of it. You do not like to be left alone to entertain yourself--hopefully this will change in time. You love your mommy but you save your biggest smiles for when daddy walks in the door from work.
You love playing with your brother and sister and they continue to adore you. They love when you smile and interact with them and it to this day still surprises Beckett and he loves to tell us, "mom, Finley gave me a smile this morning". They both take such good care of you.
You still wont take a bottle and I think we have given up on this--we are going to move onto a sippy cup. You started taking cereal (brown rice) but don't really like it..but then again, you don't like bananas either. What kind of baby doesn't like bananas. So, until you let me know you are ready to eat, I think we will stick to some baby led weaning when it comes to food.
I'm going to guess you weight about 13.5 lbs and you are certainly longer. I bet by this time next month, you will have mastered sitting up:) We cannot wait to see what the next half of your first year of life holds!
