Grady is 5 months!

Our little G-man is 5 months! I am so amazed by how quickly he has changed from a
"newborn baby" to what seems like a little boy with such a definite personality already. We are enjoying this new stage with our little guy so much! We love his happy, outgoing personality! He seems to be a "people person" because he is always full of smiles when we go out in large groups or people talk to him. At his doctors appointment this month he weighed 20.6 pounds and was 27 1/2 inches long. He is still in the 100th percentile for weight and 97th percentile for height. Big boy! This month Grady...

-Started eating baby food. So far he has tried carrots, sweet potatoes, pears, bananas, squash, and apple sauce. I have really been enjoying making his baby food. His favorite so far seems to be sweet potatoes and apple sauce. :)
-Rolls over more frequently and occasionally pushes off the ground with his feet.
-Has a big personality coming out! He can be loud and full of smiles when he's happy. As well as loud and impatient when he's mad. He seems to know what he wants and he wants it now!
-Started pre-school. I went back to teaching so Grady is now going to my school with me. He loves the ladies in the baby room and all of the other babies. They always say he smiles all the time!
-Grady's favorite thing to do at school is go on buggy rides!
-Found his feet! That means he is always reaching for them and occasionally has them in his mouth :/
-Seems to be "digging" for his teeth. He is always drooling and puts everything in his mouth!
-Is almost sitting up on his own. He will sit but usually falls down after a few minutes.
-Loves to stand when we are holding him!
-Is sitting in a high chair.
We love his huge smile and happy feet!




I just love this face!
