Saturday morning with my boys

Our Baby Boy is 5 Months Old

It is so hard to believe that five months ago, we were blessed with the most perfect little boy. We truly cannot imagine life without him. He brings us so much joy and it has been so rewarding and exciting to watch him learn, explore, and grow everyday.

If you haven't seen Harrison in a while, he is quite the big boy... physically and developmentally :) At his last doctor's visit, he weighed 17lbs and 15 1/2 oz and was 26 inches long... 90th percentile for both height and weight. He's currently wearing 9 month clothes :) Mom and dad are convinced that we are raising a future linebacker!!

Developmentally, Harrison discovered his feet last month and enjoys trying to get them in his mouth!! He also started on rice cereal, which he LOVES!! He has also been teething over the past month, so everything within reach is drooled on and placed in his mouth. He is trying to sit up on his own and has discovered his voice... often screaming at the top of his lungs and then laughing at the sound. We can definitely tell that he is going to be a talker; he is very expressive when he is babbling, with the cutest facial expressions and hand gestures. And he LOVES watching TV, especially Baby Einstein and Sports Center.

We have truly been spoiled, because Harrison has been sleeping through the night in his crib since he was 3 1/2 months old. We lay him down at 8:30pm and like clockwork, he is up at 6:30am. We no longer have to set the alarm clock!! And when he wakes up he is all smiles and babbles and laughs. He is definitely a morning person, unlike his parents!! (Don't worry... we know that our next child will pay us back!!)

Watching a helicopter... can you see the rice cereal all over his mouth?

I just LOVE his smile!
