5 months old


How Big is Baby...
Today our little baby is 5 months old.  Where did the time go?  He is such a joyful baby that will smile when you look at him. And he is the most ticklish baby ever.  I love to just tickle him and hear him giggle really hard.  He really loves to watch his big brother.  Joel always wants to see what Colin is doing/playing with and if its more exciting than what he has he will try to scoot his way over there. Or at least try. Colin is very sweet most of the time to let Joel play with some of his toys.  I know there will come a time when he wont want to share but he will find toys for Joel to play with. And yes Joel is scooting all over the place now. He's not really crawling but he can roll/scoot to get whatever he wants.  And he tries hard and it takes him a while but he's getting faster every day. Joel still loves most of all to be snuggled with which we all love and his new thing is to grab our faces and then slobber on our cheeks.  Probably what he experiences with the thousands of kisses he gets from his mom, dad, and big brother.  Its so sweet and i love it.  And he loves to slap his right hand against his leg. He learned it over thanksgiving and is so proud of himself. I think we said this every month with Colin but does he really have to get older?  Each new stage and month is fun but it goes by so fast. We just love our baby Joel!

So Big!
