My Gray baby is 5 months old today! He's growing so fast I can hardly stand it. He's getting so active. He rolls a ton and grabs at everything. He's getting pretty good at grasping with his hands. I fed him rice cereal today for the first time. I think he's been ready for a while. He totally watches us eat and I let him suck on an orange slice the other day. Plus he's been nursing non-stop. I was in denial because that makes him so much bigger. He did awesome. I fed him a really runny bowl and then made more that was thicker and he totally gulped it down! Maybe if I start feeding him more he'll sleep better at night. That's my hope. We just had his 4 month check up a week and a half ago. His stats: 16 Lbs (57%), 25.5 in. (55%), Head 16.7 in. (43%). So just above average, but he seems so big to me. Probably because Owen was always so little. Gray is already wearing 9 month size clothes...clothes Owen didn't wear til he was walking and almost a year old!
He's been smiling and laughing a lot more lately too. It's one of my favorite things. He's such a sweet baby. I just can't get enough of my kiddos.

| He looks like he's not enjoying it very much because it was right before nap time...So tired. |

| I was trying to get him sucking his fingers (index and middle finger, it's so cute) but he moved right when I took the picture. |

He's so cute and getting so big! I can see Andy in that face of his. It's crazy how fast babies grow!! I hope you're having a great new year :)
He's such a doll. And a TOTAL mini Andy! Glad he took so well to rice cereal. Fingers crossed you start getting some sleep.
Such a little darling. I love his big blue (hazel?) eyes!
