5 months

I can't believe Brantley is 5 months old.  He is getting more personality and learning new things every day.  He loves eating and eats baby food like a pro.  He can go through about 2 jars of baby food a day.   Some days I can't get it in him fast enough.  He weighs between 17 and 18 lbs and can fit into 6 month clothing.  He can roll on to his stomach like a pro, and then gets frustrated because he can't make it back over to his back.  He is getting better at sitting up and supporting himself for a little bit.  
He is still a social little boy.  He loves when people talk to him.  He will smile and talk back to them.  I think once he starts talking we won't be able to get him to be quiet.  
He loves playing with his toys and has been able to control his hands a lot more the past month. It is so nice he is able to entertain himself a little more.
He loves to be outside and really enjoys going on walks.  He can now put himself to sleep for naps. When we were in Texas he figure out how to do that. (Speaking of Texas I really need to write a post about our trip) It makes nap time so much easier and isn't such a fight.  He usually takes 3 naps during the day.  
We love our little boy and the joy he brings to our lives and the lives of those around us.  


Needless to say he wasn't too fond of the grass.  We can't wait to see what the next month brings us!
