5 Months old!

 


Cole is 5 months old!  Time is moving by so quickly and he could not be more adorable.  Cole is rolling, grabbing his feet, vocalizing up a storm, and even slept with one arm out of the swaddle last night.  Cole is very cuddly, and still moves his body to put his feet on us while laying beside us, which he's done almost since birth.  He also still loves bouncing on the yoga ball, and is coziest when held close, across the body.  When he isn't tired he is how able to sit on my hip and holds on to my arm.

On his birthday we gave him oatmeal that he didn't like, and a few days later he ate banana and liked that much better.  He is still getting about half to two thirds breast milk (maybe 20 oz?) and seems ready for a #2 nipple.

He enjoys playing rough and being tossed in the air, and thinks Tilly is pretty great. Cole cries only rarely, and recovers quickly.  He loves watching other kids and prefers people to toys.

He seems to have some eczema on his face, poor guy, and has rubbed the hair off his temples on both sides.  

Cole is becoming more adventurous and he and Anna go on errands every day.  Yesterday we took him to the library for the first time and he enjoyed watching the toddlers and meeting Bert and Ernie puppets.
