5 months and growing...
Today is Morgan's 5 month Birthday! This is terrifying honestly I don't know how it seems to go by so fast. We keep telling him to stop growing but he won't listen. This week we started him up on a new nightly routine of having a late bath followed by a warm bottle and then sleep. Since we started this each night he goes to sleep and doesn't wake up until 8am which just happens to be the time Steve gets up so everyone gets a full nights sleep now. We are super lucky.
Last night during bath time we showed him how to splash and this time he caught on and was splashing like crazy with both arms and both legs and laughing. It is so cute. He has also started getting shy or I don't know what it is but if one of us is holding him and the other one comes up and says Hi and smiles at him he gets a big smile and then buries his face in our chest. Then he will lift his head up and look at you and do it again.
He still doesn't have any teeth but you can feel them right under the gums and we are pretty sure he is ready for soft foods but we are going to hold out until 6 months just to be safe. I am going to make our own baby food from scratch so that I can make sure it is organic without any weird stuff added to it.
Since he is sooo old now he is deemed ready for baby classes at the Little Gym but right now apparently they don't have enough babies signed up so I have to wait for them to call me. I also am trying to get him into this other baby development class where they not only do all the muscle development and music enrichment activities but also teach sign language. Next month I am going to sign him up for the Aqua tots class as well at a nearby swim center. That is the one I am most excited about. Can you tell I am bored and have Cabin Fever?
I don't have any really new pictures so I will post this leftover from Christmas I never got around to editing...
