5 Months!

Connor Benjamin you are FIVE months old today! I can't believe that in one more month you will be halfway to ONE! I remember like it was yesterday being pregnant with you! Time is going waaayyyy too fast little man! We love you so much and every day I thank God for bringing you to our family! Here is what you are up to at five months!

You weigh around 16 pounds and are wearing mostly 3-6 month clothes and just moved up to a size 3 diaper.

This was a big month for you! You started rolling over from tummy to back then back to tummy, you had your first taste of solid food, you went to the church nursery for the first time and you have sat up in a little tripod pose for a few seconds! I can't wait to see how you grow and change in the year to come!

Here you are trying to sit up! You are definitely still working on your balance but are so close!

One of my favorite things about the past month is how much you have started to love your big brother. He makes you laugh more than any of the rest of us can and your face just lights up when you see him!

This morning we were taking some pictures of you and Mason had to join in too!

You also took your first wagon ride with him! Ever since Mason got the wagon for his first birthday I pictured him riding in it with a sibling! Now we can finally do that!

You are still teething like crazy. I never knew so much drool could come from such a tiny little man!

When you aren't drooling, you are chewing on your fists. Yet another sign that a tooth is coming! Your big brother got his first one at 5 1/2 months so I am hoping we are really close!

Sweet Connor you are still such a smily baby! You love to pose for the camera too!

This month you have started developing a little separation anxiety and are most happy when you are being held by Mommy! Sometimes you cooperate though and will still enjoy sitting in your bumbo or your bumper jumper!

After sleeping great your first three months you are still now having a bit of a regression. You wake up a couple of times a night on most nights. I know this is just a phase and hopefully soon you will be back to sleeping through the night!

This month I have had more people tell me that you are looking a lot like your big brother! Here is a comparison! I am definitely starting to see the similarities!

Happy 5 Months Sweet Connor!
