5 months

Corbin Fisher was 5 months old on Friday. I don't know where the time goes! I say that every.single.month! He weighs around 17 lbs and is 26 inches by my measurements at home. I'd say that's pretty close b/c last month he was 25 1/4 and that's about the rate he has been growing. He loves ALL baby food. He wasn't too fond of peas, but he ate them. We moved up to level 2 b/c the level one just wasn't enough for him, lol! He gets fruit after his a.m. nap and then still takes 4-6 oz. and he gets a veggie for supper and then a bottle. The kid lovesss to eat! He is still a very happy baby, but I'm thinking he has my temper... Yikes! If he doesn't like something he SCREAMS... LOUDLY! and then will look at you and smile like he knows he is funny and doing something big. He has found his voice and squeals like there is no tomorrow.


Still loves his bouncy seat. NOT a fan of tummy time. He likes it for about 10 min. and then he is very much over it! If you sit him up he can sit for a few seconds at a time by himself... but his new trick is throwing himself backwards when he is sitting on your lap or you are holding him so we have to be careful! We are going to have to start strapping him in his bouncy seat too b/c he will jump himself down where his legs are hanging off! He also does that anytime you sit him against a pillow or the boppy. He thinks it is funny and will laugh at himself!


He is wearing size 3 diapers and mostly 6-9 mo. clothing. He can still fit in a few 3-6 month outfits (mainly the Gymboree ones, but even those shorts are getting a little tight!). His fave person is still his big brother and he cracks up at him. B's new thing is to dance for him and C loves it. He still sleeps on the same schedule (7:30pm until 6:00 on week day mornings then back to sleep 'til 9:30 and then an afternoon nap for a couple hours... or on weekend mornings he sleeps until 7-7:30 am and then same schedule for naps).


He loves to look at other babies/small kids. Likes toys and gets excited about them. Really studies his fingers now too (when they aren't in his mouth that is). Still loves swimming and baths and being outside. If he is mad you can take him outside and he is instantly happy.


I'm sure there is more but I can't think right now! We are just so blessed by our lil' man and loving him more every day!
