The Big Five Months

Dear Conley,
It's hard to believe you have been in our lives for a total five months. It really seems like we were just going to the hospital to have you.

These days you are rolling around and always watching your brother with a close eye. He really seems to entertain you.

Still no teeth yet, but you really have been feeling the pain of them starting to make their arrival. At your four month appointment you were 15 lbs and 5 oz and 25.75 inches tall. I am guessing you are over 16 lbs and 26 inches in height. You are still my little blondie!

We had some rough days over Christmas when you received your first cold courtesy of your big brother. However you did get over it pretty quickly. You made your first trip to visit my parents, and you actually slept most of the car right there. I wasn't really sure how it was going to work since Nolan wouldn't nap the whole time, but I guess by now you are used to tuning him out.

You are grabbing all your toys and of course then they go directly in your mouth. You now have inch worm skills which always leaves you to being at the top of the crib when I distinctly remember putting you at the bottom.

You are still my smiley guy, and it looks like the teething has given you a break for a few days. I know we are about to go through some major changes soon--sitting up, eating solids...then crawling. It's amazing how fast this first year goes by. We love you with our whole hearts and can't wait to see you and your brother play and grow together.

Happy Five Months to my little man!
