In five months...

Owen has more than doubled his weight.
Grown 4 inches.
Learned how to grab things with his hands.. and feet.
Can and will grab anything within reach.
Sucks on his toes.
Can sit up using his hands for balance.
Can sit perfectly in the bumbo.
Can roll over both from back to tummy and tummy to back.
Squeels when tickled.
Can focus on anything, even a fly buzzing around.
Can sometimes go more than 2 hours without eating.
Is eating rice cereal.
Smiles A LOT :)
Has gotten into somewhat of a napping schedule.
Has stopped sleeping good at night (we're hoping this is just a phase!)
Can pick up his binky and put it in his mouth.
Loves being thrown in the air.
Is making new noises (dadada, bababa...)


 In five months I have...
Gotten over my fear of taking Owen to the store.
Made it through all three hours of church, even if it has only been a couple times.
Learned how to do pretty much anything one handed (laundry, putting on make up, vacuuming...)
Learned how to get ready before noon everyday.
Gotten more used to leaving Owen to go to work, but it's still hard :(
Loved every second with my little guy.

 I'd say it's been a pretty productive five months! I can't wait to see everything we can do in the next five!
