Well today I'm officially 5 months old. My life has gone by so quickly already, meaning I have done things that I never thought I could do: smile, laugh, roll over, sit up with help, stand with help, eat solids and I know a lot more will happen sooner than I think. Mommy took me to get weighed yesterday and I'm still a little peanut weighing in at 14 lbs 9 ounces (46%) and measure in at 24.5in (42%).
Mommy thought it would be a good idea to put me in our pool this week and to dunk me under the water. Grandma was here and thought it would be ok (and wanted to get pictures of me with my hair wet) and boy was I shocked, but I didn't cry and was okay with the whole experience. This week she put under the water 6 times and I think we're just going to stick with the dunking for awhile. Mommy a little apprehensive about just throwing me in the pool, maybe next year after some swim lessons.
This week I got to try two more new foods and ate them in my new highchair. I ate avacados and green beans and liked them both. Next up we're trying carrots and sweet potatoes. Mommy loves being able to make my food, but I don't like the sound of the blender. It scares me every time she turns it on. Oh well, I'm getting healthy, homemade, organic food instead of the jar variety. On a side note, Mommy is none too happy with having to change my diapers more and let's just say we're using a ton more wipes!
My favorite new toy is the jumper that goes in the doorway. I love jumping up and down and Mommy thinks it hilarious to watch me bounce around. I get so excited when I jump all over the place and laugh like a real little person. I could spend more than half an hour just jumping around and I don't get cranky at all.
5 Months has gone by way too fast. I can't believe that next month I will be halfway to my first birthday!
