Five Months


Weight: 16lbs. 5 oz.
Height: 27 inches
Diaper Size: two
Clothing Size: 9 months, even some 12 month now!
Eating Schedule: every 3-4 hours during the day, no more middle of the night feedings since March 10!
Cries when: hungry and tired
Milestones:
-Calvin laughs, a lot now! He especially thinks it’s funny to get undressed particularly just before bathtime (he gets really excited when he hears the water start to run).
-Grasps toys
-Rolls over
-Puts just about everything in his mouth, especially his fist and thumb
-Sitting upright while supported
-Sits in his stroller without the car seat adaptor when we go for walks
-Calvin started sleeping through the night this month (specifically the night of my birthday! He knew just what mommy wanted…I couldn’t believe it when I woke up in the morning only to realize I got 8.5 uninterrupted hours of sleep!) He goes to bed just around 8:00pm, and we wake him up at 10:30pm for one last feeding. Lately, he’s been sleeping through the feeding so he’s probably close to not needing it much longer. He wakes up between 7:00-7:30am.
-Leans forward/sits up in his swing, bathtub, car seat and bouncy seat…strapping in is a must!
-Started solids! Calvin so far has eaten oatmeal and apples and loves it. He sits in his highchair and eats like such a big boy J
-We finally moved into our new home this past month! We have a small lake in our backyard which is home to about 6 beautiful mallard ducks that come right up to our sliding glass doors some mornings! Calvin loves to go outside to feed them!

I know I promised baptism pictures, so here are a couple...

He did great when holy water was poured over his head!
