Grady is Five Months

Grady is five months today!  Ahhhhhh!  He is the sweetest.  Here is a quick update:

1.  He's 19 pounds 2 ounces as of Friday when he was at the doctor for what I thought was an ear infection but wasn't.  Size 3 diaper.  Mostly 12 month clothes.    


2.  He started food on his 4 month birthday and over the last couple of weeks he decided he needed two meals a day instead of one.  First we upped his milk so he gets 9 ounces at 7am and 6:30pm and then 8 ounces at 11am and 3pm.  He was still acting hungry so we added a second feeding.  Becky feeds him "breakfast" and I feed him around 5:15 or so right before we eat.  


3.  Speaking of food, he's had - bananas, apple sauce, carrots, green beans, peas, sweet potato, avocado, apple strawberry applesauce (hello pouches!), pears, peaches.  He didn't love green beans the first time but has liked them since.  He likes everything else.  The more the better in Grady's world!  

4.  He loves car rides, walking in the stroller, being held while we stand up (not sitting), watching his sister, petting Mills and feeling his fur, food, Ms. Becky, playing with his toys and my boba carrier. 


5.  He's not into being held while the person holding him is sitting still.  Otherwise, he is super chill.  



6.  He is asleep by 7pm and wakes up around 6:30/7am.  He's taking three naps a day - 1.5 hours around 9/9:30, 2 hours around 12:30pm and a cat nap for 30 minutes around 4:30 or so.  


7.  He has started to get wild in the tub and loves splashing.  


8.  He is drooling like a crazy man this last week or so.  


9.  He likes to be outside and doing anything.  He has been in the exersaucer a little this month.


10.  He still has reflux so we keep him upright for 10-15 minutes after every feeding.  He burps so much during the day.  I hope this gets better for him soon!  

11.  Nicknames - Grady boy, Grady Love, Grady Love Bucket

That's our Grady!  

He is wearing this adorable duck jon jon!  The best quality and easy/quick to put on and take off!

And you know Molly Anne wasn't going to be left out of the photo shoot!  She loves helping me pick out what he should wear and taking the pictures!  Here is her 5 month update.
