Judson is 5 Months!

Our sweet baby turned 5 months old the day after Christmas. It is so hard to believe that he will be half a year old already next month. I absolutely love this age! I think 5 and 6 months are my favorite age! The smiles, the laughs, the coos, and the new-found skills just make this age so enjoyable! John Turner has spent the night with Grandparents several times this month so I have gotten one on one time with this baby! I just can't get enough of him!


He is just full of love and laughter these days!


He loves to play on his belly. If you lie him down on his back, chances are he will be on his belly a minute later. He still gets stuck on his belly sometimes and it just makes him so mad!


He loves to play with his feet this month! I find him like this most days!


We have started using the exersaucer this month. He likes it for short periods of time. He is getting stronger and liking it more and more each day.



We started rice cereal and oatmeal this month. The boy LOVES some oatmeal but is not too fond of the cereal.




His favorite place to be right now is in this doorway jumper. He will bounce in this thing for hours! He just bounces and talks. I love watching him in this! His brother was also a huge fan of this.



My beautiful blond-haired blue-eyed baby boy!
