Happy {5 Months} Caleb!

My little big Caleb is 5 months old!


Caleb is just a ball of fun these days! He weighs 20lbs {according to our scale at home}, he started to sleep during the night {VICTORY!!! Throw a party!}, he's wearing 12 month clothes, he's eating homemade baby food, he's trying to sit up by himself, and he's rolling over like crazy {from back to tummy}. 

Since his 4 month birthday, we have been feeding him baby food. We started with rice cereal for two weeks, then carrots, and then squash. I think this hungry hippo just needed extra food to get him through the night. We feed him the extra baby food, plus a 5-6 oz. bottle at his last feeding, and then we do our bedtime routine and put him down to bed awake. From day 1 of baby food he's been sleeping from 10pm-5am!!! Can I get a happy dance?!?! Sleep...oh sleep...I have forgotten how sweet you are!

Caleb rolls over all the time, and just today he learned how to now roll over from his tummy to his back, AND he can scoot backwards {oh, the small victories we celebrate in this house}!

He loves to giggle, "talk", play, and especially watch Ariel! He loves his puppy dog {Ariel does not return the love...sad face.}!

He's been drooling like crazy lately, and he's found his feet {and he likes to put his feet in his mouth}. 

Yes, our Caleb is just growing like a champ! Happy {5 Months} my little prince!
