Happy Birthday Grandma

I used to get really cute pictures with Jim & a message sign to send to people. But that doesn't work so well these days. He's always trying to wiggle around...and would much rather be eating the paper than to be looking at the camera for a picture.

Anyways, here is Jim trying to wish his Grandma a Happy Birthday!!!

Smile

These two pictures of Jim make me smile everytime I look at them. I hope they put a smile on your face today :)

Sitting up!

Jim can sit up all on his own now!!! He's been doing it for the past week or so. Look at how proud he is in the picture! He'd been sitting down playing with us, and I thought he always needed our support. And then one day in the past week I let him go on his own, and he played away without falling. What a big boy he's becoming!

5 Months Old

Happy 5 month Jim!!!

It's hard to believe that 5 months ago we were welcoming you into the world. You're becoming quite the little young man now!

What Jim is up to:

• Wearing size 2 diapers
• In 3-6 month clothes (his pajamas are starting to get a little short on him though...)
• Is laughing all the time!
• Loves playing in his jumperoo! Bouncing all over the place.
• Still sleeping through the night! Goes down between 8-9 and we wake him up at 5.
• Is rolling from his back to his belly all the time now!
• Is trying real hard to start crawling. He gets his butt up in the air, just needs to figure out the next step.
• Still eats at 5:00am; then gets 4 bottles @ daycare (4-5 ounces); and then eats twice again in the evening.
• He's tried avocado (not sure what he thought of that) and has had cereal -- which he loves! He tries to help me feed him, grabbing at his spoon.
• He weighed 17 pounds on our scale at home.
• Loves playing peek-a-boo with us!
