5 Months Old

Time Flies too quickly. I can't believe it has been 5 months!

Here are some updates on Mr. Alden...

Growth: We don't have a fully-accurate weight and height of Alden, but he is weighing around 17 1/2 pounds. He is a big boy. He is very very long and is almost out-growing his carrier.

SLEEP: We are sleeping well!! He's still on his normal schedule of bedtime at 9 PM wake up at 7:30 AM. Nap time at 11 AM until 1 or 2 PM. I'm loving the sleep!



CLOTHING: He is in 6-9 month clothes. For a while there were some 3-6 month things he could wear, but he now completely out of them. He's growing WAAYY too fast!

DIAPERS: We are still in size 2's. I have 2 1/2 packages left so hopefully we will make it through them before moving on.

DEVELOPMENT: HE'S ROLLING! I never thought he would get all the way over! He would go halfway for weeks. We are now officially a rolling bug! He is doing well pushing up on his hands and straightening his arms. he is trying to crawl... But, it's not working out too well. He gets his butt in the air... then nothing.



FOOD: We are still on soy. 4 8 ounce bottles a day of formula. We have tried LOTS of new foods this month. He is eating Rice cereal, oatmeal, green beans, peas, carrots, squash, and sweet potatoes. Next, we are on to fruits! The good stuff!!! :)

Alden is GROWING like a weed! It is going WAY too fast.

Until next month...
