5 Months...

Easton turned 5 months on Halloween.  I just want time to sloooooow down.  It's going by way too fast.  He had a big two days. . . He turned 5 months, had his first Halloween, and rolled over for the first time.  I'm so glad that I was able to see him do it.  Justin put him in his crib on his tummy and we sat there and watched him for a little bit and he never did anything.  Justin left the room and I turned around to hang up some clothes and turned back around and he was on his back :)  I thought Justin had turned him over before he left, but he didn't.  So we put him back on his tummy and we sat there and watched him do nothing again.  Just like the old saying. . . a watched pot doesn't boil.  So Justin left again and I started back with hanging up clothes, and then sure enough, he is on his back :)  I missed it TWICE.  He finally did it when we put him on our bed later that night. . .Yay



5 Months Old

So our first Halloween as a family was pretty uneventful.  I couldn't find a costume that I liked that would fit him.  Then I saw this cute little PJ set at Target that I thought would be perfect.  He was absolutely adorable in it and he was ready for bed too.  We took pictures of him, paraded him around until he spit up on his outfit, and then went home.  We were all in bed by 7:30 (I think).  We are so not the night owls we used to be ;)

Our Little Monster

Favorite Things He Does:

Turns his head and looks behind him

Holds onto me when I carry him

Touches my face with both of his hands

Loves to watch Mickey Mouse Clubhouse

Takes his pacifier out and puts it back in

Gets so excited that he can't control his body and kicks his legs like crazy

Recognizes me when I pick him up from Lolly's house

Stares into my eyes when he is going to sleep and then slowly drifts off

Talks and squeals and bangs his hands on his legs, head, stomach,

and just about anything that is around him

Drools constantly and blows bubbles
