John Warren is 5 months today!

What a change! This little man is growing like a weed!

4 months

5 months

You are five months today! You are getting bigger and bigger by the day! You need to be strapped in your nap nappy now if I'm not right by your side because you will wiggle your way right out of it! Your sweet little smile still melts my heart! And for some reason, I want to kiss your little toes uncontrollably.

You have learned how to jump in your jumperoo that we bought you when you turned 4 months. You love the lights and the songs that it plays--"on the farm." You wore yourself out so much today that you decided to take a little nap!

This face looks like the face of an angel. How can a person be so sweet? This is the most beautiful sight in the world!

Four days ago we went to meet your little friend Mackenzie, and I dressed you in my favorite onesie. It says, "Mommy's Little Guy." That's exactly what you are!

You are still looking like your dad...a lot!

You have found your feet now, and you love to pull them and play with them anytime you are on your back.

Just this week, you started practicing your push ups. You are getting those little arms ready to hold your weight when you crawl across the floor.

You are also pulling your knees under your body. If only you could get those arms to push up at the same time you pull under your knees. You are working hard on these skills, and I know you will figure it out soon enough! Daddy and I love watching you grow and get stronger!

Maybe the most exciting thing is this! You rolled from your back to your tummy for the first time when you were four months and two weeks old. Now you can do it whenever you choose!

You still do not have a tooth, but I know it will be here soon because you like to chew on everything.

Mommy has been working for two weeks now, and you have started staying with your mamaw during the day.

You have had a little sleep regression though and have been waking up every two hours for the past two weeks.

You are still only eating mommy's milk, but at the end of this month, you will be ready for babyfood.

You love to play now while you nurse and you will grab my hand and squeeze and then let go. We make it a game where I do the same to your hand.

You are interested in everything now, and you get easily distracted while eating, so I try to keep it as quiet as possible.

You are now and always will be the apple of my eye!
