5 months!

Colson is 5 months old today, I can't believe it!  He is so much fun to have and he is such a good baby (mostly!). 


What is Colson up to these days?
*He was 14 lb 8 oz. last month and I'm pretty sure he's well over 15 lbs now! 
*He still LOVES to eat.  He is eating Oatmeal cereal, apples, bananas, peaches, prunes, squash, peas, carrots, and green beans-we have yet to find a food he won't eat!  He eats oatmeal and fruit for breakfast and a veggie and fruit for dinner.  He has a 5 oz. bottle about every 3 hours in between and a 7-8oz.  bottle with oatmeal before bed. 
* He is rolling from his tummy to his back consistently
* He can sit supported very well and propped with a boppy for a couple of minutes
* He drools CONSTANTLY!  He usually has a fist in his mouth and will try to attack anybody elses fingers if they are near.  No teeth yet, but there is a bump on his bottom gums!
* He is reaching for things purposefully this last week.  He's not too quick yet, but he's going to catch us off gaurd soon!
* He LOVES Alyvia.  She makes him belly laugh like no other :)

* He loves his daddy too and really listens when he hears his voice

* Cole is sleeping better, but still not completely through the night.  He goes to bed around 9 p.m. and sleeps usually sleeps until between 4 and 5 a.m.  Occasionally he gets up around 2 a.m. to just chat for awhile :)  I can put his paci back in, re-swaddle him and he goes back to sleep.  Anytime after 4, we usually just feed him 3-4 oz. and he goes back to sleep until around 7-ish.  We're still working on it!
Sleeping or not, we love him so much and can't wait to see what he's doing in the next month!
