Lucas is 5 months

Here we are, already at 5 months! Lucas continues to be such an easygoing baby, but he definitely likes his routines (more about that in my Hilton Head post.) At 5 months Lucas:

• Loves watching and learning from his big brother. One evening while my parents were visiting Christian was bouncing a kickball on his head continually in return for Lucas' giggles and big belly laughs. Such a sweet and silly moment.
• Is trying to grasp for everything that he can reach but doesn't quite have that hand-eye coordination just yet. However, he did pull a bowl of cereal and milk in my lap this morning at breakfast while he was sitting in my lap.
• Is starting to really like his rice cereal. He has only tried rice cereal and bananas so far.
• Is still tooth-less even though I thought he was getting his first tooth a month ago. He is drooling like crazy and always has something in his mouth- like his thumb!
• Wears size 2 diapers and 3-6 month clothing...a few 3 month still.
• Sleeps through the night regularly (8pm to 8am) with a good afternoon nap (usually 3 hours) and a random morning one (we are always so busy and on the go in the mornings.)
• Is rolling over, both back to front and front to back. Although he doesn't seem to like being on his belly (he needs to build that arm strength.) Otherwise he is scootching himself around all over.
• Is beginning to "talk" more and more and develop his vocal cords. It's amazing how loud such a little person can be!
• Loves to be held.
• Enjoys being outside and loves his rides in the stroller.

We love this sweet little boy!!
