5 Months

Matthew is 5 months old already. What a boy! He is just the best little guy. We love every inch of him...those rolly thighs, dimpled elbows, gummy smile, soft brown hair, stinky little toes (he has the sweatiest feet!).
He has a belly laugh that we will go to great efforts to get out of him but generally he is quick to laugh...especially if there is a raspberry kiss headed to his tummy. He is giving kisses...big gooey slobbery awesome face dive kisses and is sleeping well now that he can roll over on his stomach to sleep. He sits on his own now and is interested in his toys. Everything goes into his mouth but no teeth yet! He has started to eat a few foods as he is nearing 6 months. Avocado and sweet potato are so far a big hit. He puts them in his own mouth, tries to chew and swallows so he seems ready and enthusiastic. So far no one is a picky eater...far from it! These kids LOVE to eat...and he seems to have been encouraged by watching their enthusiasm. Every time he takes a bite of anything he grins around the table at everyone, so pleased with his big self! I have a feeling, based on his growth curve so far that appatite is not going anywhere! I put him in a 12-18 month outfit recently that barely fit! He weighs close to 18 pounds and is very long.

We are just crazy about this sweet baby! How lucky we are that he is ours!
