5 Months Old!

I am sure I will keep saying this every month, but I can not believe that Bradley is 5 months old! He sure is developing quite a personality and a little more of it shows every day. He has a bit of a temper, if he drops a toy and can't reach it, he will let you know. Of course he still lets you know if he is hungry as well. We started him on cereal right at about 5 months old, but after a few days of extremely painful gas and one unhappy baby we had to put the solids on hold. The doctor said that his belly just might not be ready. So we will try again in a couple of weeks after his Doctor's appointment. He loved eating from the spoon though, and would get so excited. So I hope we can start again very soon!

He also rolled over a couple of weeks ago, and has rolled over a couple of times since then. He is starting to almost like tummy time, so that is making it a lot easier to get him to start rolling over more often. We practice sitting up too, he does pretty well but falls back a lot.

We are having so much fun with him and love watching his new skills develop every day!

Meeting Santa for the first time!

It was a success! Bradley was having a great day so we thought it was the perfect time to meet Santa. He was so happy but overwhelmed at everyone walking by and all the other things around him that it took a little while to get him to look straight at the camera. But we did it and this picture is just priceless...well actually it was like $30 ha! But it was worth way more!

We are so excited for Bradley's first Christmas. He won't remember it, but hopefully he will have a fun day and we will get some great photos to show him when he is older.

4 Months Old!

Bradley is now four months old and he is really developing his own personality. He knows when you leave the room now and he does not like it! So even though he has his bouncy seat, bumbo seat, swing, activity gym and his infant seat as well, he only like to be in them while he can see you. Needless to say, this made moving in and unpacking a little more challenging. But we did it and Bradley has now officially been through his first, of many, moves.

He has been talking even more then last month and he also is using his hands a lot more. When his hands aren't in his mouth he is holding toys, shaking rattles and attempting to hold his bottle.

He recently had his four month check up here at Seymour and he weighed 16 pounds! We have a butterball just in time for Thanksgiving! He also had his second set of shots, which of course was not fun for anyone! He cried for only a minute again though and stopped as soon as daddy picked him up.

We look forward to the next few months as he will start eating fun foods, sitting up on his own and will be mobile before we know it!
