By five months.....he started rolling both ways from front to back and now from back to front. We also started solid foods, and he is thrilled to get anything in his mouth.
By six months....he was quickly rolling himself across the room to get what he wants.
By seven months....he is now "army crawling" and getting up on his hands and knees/rocking back and forth. I know he'll be crawling soon and I don't think I can handle it! We're experimenting with mushed up banana pieces and cheerios to work on self-feeding - although he just gets super frustrated when he can't quite get the food in his mouth. It is hilarious because the look on his face is like the most dissatisfied restaurant customer ever!
He loves taking baths and sits up in the baby bath tub and splashes like crazy. He's still not a great sleeper and only sleeps through the night on occasion. But, we've been through so many transitions lately (on the road, in FL, living in a studio apartment! etc.) that I can't blame him for his interrupted sleep. He weighs 23 pounds and wears size 12 month clothes, so I was getting my workout carrying him around Minneapolis. He can sit up without immediately toppling over, and he can lean forward from sitting to get himself into position to crawl and push himself back up to sit. He doesn't babble but he loves to laugh, squeal and scream (haha!). Daddy needs some ear plugs! He is still super duper smiling, loves to pull hair and will drag himself across the room to play with his big brother. I love getting to watch him change and grow day by day. He is a miracle and a blessing. We love you baby J!
