5 Months!

Nolan you are 5 months old and have grown so much this month! Not only can you roll tummy to back, but now you can roll back to tummy. You love that you can do this because now you can get yourself onto your tummy to fall asleep. You also sleep longer because of it, taking up to 2 hour naps and going 12 hours at night without a dream feed. We put you to bed between 7-7:30 and you are not up for the day until 7 am! You do wake up once for your pacifier, but it doesn't take you long to fall back to sleep. Hopefully that will soon pass as well since you can now also put your own pacifier in your mouth when you want to.
Besides rolling you also learned how to sit up all on your own! You love playing with this new perception on the world. You love to play with your taggy elephant, any rattle, books, and your sitting up music toy.  You found your toes as well so you love to grab at those. You love watching your brothers play and giggle whenever they come by and talk to you. You also love to jump up and down with mommy and daddy's help and pull on mommy's hair. Your favorite thing to do when you are tired is to hold onto some of my hair with one hand, while digging your face into my chest or shoulder.
You love to eat your oatmeal. You get that one or two times a day and get 4 bottles of 6 ounces of formula everyday. I am excited to start you on fruits and veggies in a few weeks.  It seems to me that you have filled out some since starting on your oatmeal. You now have rolls in your legs and are starting to get bigger checks like your big brothers had. You are such a happy, easy going baby. Only getting fussy when your tired or hungry. We are so blessed to have you and love you soooo much!
