Carter - 5 Months

"Well, hello there blog readers!"

Carter got another month older. Growing like a weed!

What's new this month? Well, he's definitely teething and gnaws on anything he can pull to his mouth, though no toothies have popped through just yet. We're hoping they will soon if it'll ease the pain! And he caught another cold from his big brother that developed into a double ear infection. So the combination of these things means he's waking up again in the middle of the night. BUT, he's still as cute as ever so we'll keep him.

"My legs are like tree trunks!" 

In more fun news, he's getting better at sitting up. Wobbles in the tripod position for a few minutes before falling over.  And he tried some solids for the first time. Started with some oatmeal cereal and took to it quickly. The first time we gave it to him he swallowed it down and opened his mouth for more! The second time was more of a struggle. And the third time he tolerated it. But then, as a special Thanksgiving treat, we tried some sweet potatoes and he really like those! If this eating keeps up, we're on our way to a fifth leg roll!

"I can't wait for Christmas!"
