Private

Hi! I have gotten a comment on my blog in a different language so I think it is time for me to make it private. I will send invites to everyone that I have emails for but if you want to keep reading send me your email and I will add you. Thanks!

The Razz

This is Cole's latest trick...I realized it yesterday. He will be playing and sitting making noises. It cracks me up! Is this the so called Razz?!?!

5 Months

such a boy...getting harder to take the pictures! :)

 

Well let me begin by saying I can't believe that Cole is 5 months. When he turned 4 months it seemed like just the next step but 5 months feels like, when did my baby get so big! :)

• Cole is starting to dabble in the 3-6 months clothing although he still fits in 0-3 months. I am rather thankful for the clothing fitting him for so long as it helps with the budget! (Is that my hubby talking through me or what?!?)
• Cole PLAYS...for real...it is the most fun! He grabs toys, rolls over to looks at toys, bats at toys. He grabs at my face and hair.
• Cole is quite the talker!
• He can focus on small items which is right where he is supposed to be according to the What to Expect in the first year book.
• He eays like a champ! Cereal and a bottle for breakfast. Cereal for dinner. And about 10 oz of bottles for lunch and 4:00. He naturally went to a 4 hour schedule without me even knowing. It was great. It is probably time to start trying other foods. Any suggestions?!?!

• Sleeping is going well. He falls asleep at night around 8:00. I usually cuddle him to sleep at this time because after working all day I am just not ready to lay him down. He eats at 8:30 and then goes down for the night. He seems to wake around 4:00 every morning but we don't feed him until the 5:00 hour. Then he sleeps til 7:15 and Kyle gets him ready for the sitters.

• Our babysitters are WONDERFUL! It has been a great experience. I am so thankful for them.
• We no longer use the baby tub. Cole loves to splash around in the big tub! It is pretty fun!

• We are working on sitting up...his head is a bit to big for his body still. haha
• I have had a few comments that Cole is looking like me again. :)
• When he doesn't like something he does one big scream. haha
• He likes to hang upside down and sit up and look around...silly!

All in all, Cole continues to be a joy! I constantly marvel at this new experience that God has given us. I love seeing how Cole changes every day. It is amazing because every weekend it seems like he does something new so I am glad to be catching those moments.

Ashley painted some pictures for Cole's room...aren't they great?!?!?

Sweating in February...

 Is a BEAUTIFUL thing! We were so excited when the temp was 45 degrees today! We have been wanting to take Cole out on the trails behind our apartment for awhile but the frigid temps did not allow. Today was the day! We strapped that baby on and took him for a ride.

Kyle's comment was "This thing (Baby Bjorn) is great because it is like carrying extra weight on your stomach." Why yes Kyle, I do know what that feels like.... FOR 9 MONTHS! haha

Family pic!

Nala was thrilled to get out ... she needed it, BAD!

5 minutes after coming in the door....tired baby! :)

Hope you had some time to go enjoy the weather!

PS: I updated my blogger today and I am so impressed...I didn't realize it had an update and I love uplolading more than one picture at a time.
