Cole at FIVE months

We have had an exciting month watching Cole grow. This month he got his first cold which caused him to wake up in the middle of the night for about 3 weeks. We thought he was waking up hungry so we started him on rice cereal. He is now sleeping through the night again. Thank goodness! Not sure if the long slumber is a result of the rice cereal or the amoxicillin. But with the rice cereal addition to his diet, he now has at least two more rolls on this thighs! He now weighs about 18 lbs. He is into the discovery mode...squealing, grabbing his feet, blowing bubbles, splashing in the bath, putting everything in his mouth, and LOTS of drooling. Enjoy the pictures: his first time in the highchair and activity center; adventures at Coolidge Park with cousin Abigail; reading Brown Bear and other books with Mommy; swaddling; bouncing in the johnny jump up; focusing on toys and books; still taking 3 naps a day; learning to sit with the Boppy as a support; pap pap (NUK) and stuffed animals are his second love ...after Mommy and Daddy of course.
