5 months





















Henry is 5 months old today! He is developing more of a personality every single day. We love watching him grow and change--he's such a big boy now. He loves to smile and laugh. He really responds well to silly faces and funny songs. He still loves his daily walks in the stroller or carrier and this is becoming easier now that the weather is warm. He has finally embraced the concept of "tummy time" and will occasionally roll over in both directions. He can sit up on his own for a short period of time, but still slumps forward or to the side after a bit. He loves to "stand"--he'll hold on to something and lean. I think he enjoys seeing the world from different perspectives and he lets us know when he's ready for a new view!


This past Sunday was also my first official Mother's Day. Henry and Mark were so sweet. They bought me a beautiful necklace! It was nice to be in Michigan for Mother's Day so we could spend time with my mom as well.


















This past weekend Henry visited his grandma and grandpa in Michigan. He had many babysitters while we all attended our friends' wedding. He was a good boy and had his longest stretch of sleep yet-10 hours in a row!


















He is doing better all the time at sleeping at night. He usually goes anywhere from 6-8 hours in a row and has even had a few nights without a night feeding. Naps are a whole other story...
