A 5 Month Old

Taylor, my sweet and always smiling boy. 5 months old! You are growing like a weed and are creating more and more smiles in this family with your grin and belly laugh.
 
 
Taylor, at this point, is sleeping from 6:30pm-7:00am and taking two naps each day.
He continues to nurse and is doing well with 4 feedings a day.
We have started food with him and he does not like cereal but does enjoy fruits and veggies. We put a little fruit in his cereal to flavor it and he does not mind then.

 
He holds his weight very well on his legs and I'm not sure how long it will take him to figure out he can use those things to walk. He rolls around a lot and prefers to sleep on his belly. His personality seems to be carefree and upbeat. Anytime you come up to him he will flash you a smile and even when he's crying can be made to laugh. I'm thinking we'll have a jokester on our hands.

 
He  adores his brother and even at 5 months you can tell he knows who that big crazy guy is.

 
He'll sit up with assistance and this is our next goal to accomplish. He looks excited about it doesn't he?!?!

 
Stroller rides are about a every night thing and he likes hanging out in there and usually holding on to whatever Matthew does not want to carry.

 
Taylor, we didn't know we needed you, but can't imagine life without you. Thank you for being a flexible and calm child and giving us another outlet for love. You continue to teach us the lessons we either forgot or did not learn with your brother and for that we are grateful and feel responsible for the treasure that has been given to us. We love you.
