5 months old

Today marks 5 months since Ezra was born. At 5 months, Ezra...
-has started eating rice cereal recreationally. We don't give it to him every day, because honestly, it's a lot of trouble at this point. I'm going to wait for a while to make it an every day thing. I'm hoping in a couple more weeks he'll get the hang of eating off of a spoon better.
-sleeps an average of 10-12 hours a night, with the occasional waking up because he has flipped himself on to his belly and can't get back over.
-rolls from back to belly on a regular basis. I've seen him roll from belly to back once or twice, but most of the time he just gets frustrated and starts crying.
-laughs and smiles a lot
-has just started sitting up in the "tripod" position for short periods of time. We're working on sitting up.
-loves the taste of his fingers and hands
-likes to grab on to anything in his sight, which usually means my hair or necklace
-likes to talk to anyone who will listen

The past 5 months have been wonderful. We love our baby boy more and more each day.

I need to give credit to my former student Erica who took this photo and a lot of other ones. I will post more later.
