Mommy's boy turned 5 months old this week. I am now really glad that he was born in the colder months....because now that he is a little more observant and active, it's so nice to be able to go outside and do things! He enjoys walks in his stroller, swinging in the baby swings at the playground, hanging out on the front porch in his walker or sitting on Mommy and Daddy's laps....
We weighed him at home last week, he was at 18.5 pounds! Our chunky monkey needs a new car seat soon, his infant carrier maxes out at 22 pounds! I've been searching craigslist and yard sales to find a nice used one, rather than spend $60 or more on a new one! It also seems that he grew through the 3-6 month sizes in about 2 or 3 weeks! Thank goodness that it's summer and the pants are supposed to be short. The waste fits fine but the pants look more like capris. Good think everyone has been giving me so many of their baby boy clothes! Takes the fun out of shopping sometimes, but sure does save on the pocketbook!
His baptism is coming up next Saturday (July 25th). Aunt Maura and Uncle John will finally be here to visit, so we plan on spending the weekend with them! It's been a busy summer. But it's so fun to share all the fun with my baby boy :)
