Eli is five months old

My sweet baby boy is already five months. Where does the time go? Oh Eli has changed so much over the past month not just to me but his babysitter has noticed as well. He is soo happy and smiles all the time, laughs out loud, and recognizes sounds and people's voices. When he sees me he gets super excited and will cry if Elliott is holding him because he wants me. He is babbling all the time and drooling like crazy so I'm sure he'll have a tooth soon.

Here's his five month pictures:




 Eli started baby food this month and so far has liked everything he has tried.
 He celebrated his FIRST Christmas and of course wore his Christmas jammies with big sis:
 He loved napping with Daddy:
 And playing with his toys:

 He adores his big sister and will smile at anything she does. She likes to read to him:
 So cute:


 And big sis is getting so big as well.


Here's his stats:
Birth weight: 9 pounds
First week appointment: 8 pounds 12 ozs
One month appointment: 11 pounds 3 ozs (82nd percentile)
                                          21.75 inches long (69th percentile)
                               
Two month appointment: 13 pounds 7 ozs (80th percentile)
                                          24 inches long (90th percentile)
 
Three months (this is from our scale): 15 pounds 5 ozs
 
Four month appointment: 15 pounds 21 ozs
                                             25 inches long
                                             HC: 44 cm
Five month (no appointment) 18 pounds (by our scale)


 Clothes: He's wearing some 6 - 9 months, 9 months and some 12 months and size 3 diapers.
 
Food: He's eating 5 ozs every 4-5 times a day and he eats cereal with fruit for breakfast and baby food at night for dinner. He's still nursing and I'm still pumping when I'm working.

Sleep: He's still not a good sleeper. I'm hoping he'll start sleeping longer at night. He does sleep on his stomach now even though I put him to bed on his back.

Activities: He still loves rolling around and will roll from one side of the room to the next. He likes his jumperoo, sitting up and playing and being around his big sister.

Dislikes: He still hates being in the car but its getting better.
