Happy Five Months Walker!!!

At five months Walker is...

• Somewhere between 16 and 17 pounds. 
• I'm guessing close to 26.5 inches. 
• Taking five to six bottles and around 28 to 30 ounces a day. I guess last month was a growth spurt month because he's not eating quite that much anymore but he's also getting a couple tablespoons if oatmeal a day to help with the reflux so it could be that too. 
• Wearing size 2 diapers
• Wearing some 0-3 month but mostly 3-6 month clothing and a few 6-9 month stuff. Baby sizing is just as weird as women sizing!
• Still being swaddled at night but most times with only one arm in. We are slowly breaking the habit!
• Sleeping pretty well most nights. Getting somewhere around 10-11 hours. I think we missed the 4 month sleep regression (knock on wood!). 
• Has rolled a few times from back to belly and belly to back. 
• Sitting up with by himself for around 20 seconds!

During his fifth month he...

• Daddy moved up to Dallas with Dallas. Say that ten times fast!
• Packed up our place in San Antonio. 
• Spent some time in Dripping Springs at aunt Myra and uncle Lew's house. 
• Got his head under water in the pool.  
• Started using the highchair for his oatmeal.  
• Began a baby gym class at My Gym.  
• Went to the sate fair and met your aunt Meg and uncle Killian for the first time!

Walker loves...

• Reading. We read all the time!
• Petting Dallas. And getting kisses in the face!
• Making funny noises with daddy. 
• "Talking" to anyone who will listen.
• Being outside and our daily walks. 
• Looking at yourself in the mirror. 
• Seeing other babies. 
• Your new fav show is Henry Hugglemonster. It's a cute little shoe on Disney about a family of monsters and you think they're hilarious!
• Rubbing momma's face as you eat or fall asleep. 

Walker, 

This month has been so fun for our little family. While we are still not all under one roof, at least daddy and Dallas are in the same city! We have spent a lot of time going back and forth between the grandparents houses and you love to spend time with your grandparents. You also love to watch Dallas run around and act crazy. I think y'all will be best buds as you grow up. You've really started to show your personality this month and you definitely have your own likes and dislikes. You loved the state fair and got to see a ton of animals and pet a few. You met Big Tex and got a small taste of powdered sugar from a funnel cake! Dad wasn't thrilled about that one, haha! You are such a great eater and sleeper (please stay that way!) and you love to play, play, play. You're such a happy boy. People always comment on how laid back and easy going you are and it's true. I know you didn't get that from me! This next month should be so much fun. Holiday season is apon us and I know these next three months will fly by. I'm trying to soak it all in and snuggle and kiss you and love you as much as possible. Sometimes I wish time would just stop so I can keep you this little forever but each month really does get better and better!

Love, 

Momma
