At five months, Sutton:
*You're so LOUD. You love to hear your own voice. Especially when you're jumping or playing, you just yell and talk and have a great time.
*You have the cutest laugh. I love it. You laugh at us, you laugh at your dogs, sometimes you laugh at the ceiling when I'm changing you.
*You're so happy. Almost all the time. When we smile at you we always get a smile back, almost without fail.
*You're eating every 4 hours, which is great because it doesn't tie us down as much. During feedings, you still get really angry when I have to switch sides.
*You have a fake cry now. It's pretty endearing.
*As evidenced above, your double chin is as present as ever.
*You're wearing size 3 diapers, though we're still trying to get rid of some size 2s.
*Your sleeping is fantastic. You still sleep swaddled, and we have had a few long stretches in the past 2 weeks, like 7 or 8 hours. One evening we kept you up an hour or so past normal, and you slept the next morning til 10:30! You would've slept longer, but you were freaking me out, so I got you up.
*You're getting better at sitting up. You can sit up on your own for a few seconds before you fall forward. You always want to sit up though...if we have you laying back a little, you strain to sit forward.
*You've started kinda grabbing onto my shoulder when I'm carrying you. I like it.
*You take a morning, afternoon, and evening nap, and sometimes a few catnaps in between. Your favorite place to nap is on my chest.
*We now use 6 month + size pacifiers. You still often take it out and replace it with your fingers, but sometimes at night, it's the end of the world if you don't have your pacifier.
*You still haven't rolled over, but I think that's due to your big booty. You love to put both feet in the air, hold onto them with your hands, and then roll to your side. But that's as far as you get.
*You're starting to play with toys. We have a book that has a plastic bag material on the inside that's really noisy and you like to play with that in the car.
*Your hair is finally growing back! You had a bunch when you were born and then lost it all except the mullet at the back of your neck. It's finally coming back and it makes you even more handsome!
*You're wearing mostly 6 month size clothes, though a lot of that is too small. 9 month size seems to fit you well. We have a couple 3 month things that still work, which is weird.
And the comparison. Crazy boy.
