Owen Turned 5 Months Old

Another month older and another month bigger, happy 5-month birthday Owen!

Owen a few days after his birthday.

No pediatrician appointment this month so no weight and length updates but we know he is growing since his clothes are getting snuger.

Patiently (for once) waiting for dinner to be served.

I couldn't resist snapping this picture. We were running around getting ready for the day and as usual, I plopped Owen down, made sure everything was out of reach and gave him a toy to entertain him for a few minutes. I looked over and realized he looked like one other thing dropped on the table with all the other "stuff."

The "twins" sleeping in the same way in bed.

Owen is such a busy little boy, he is always trying to figure out how things work and exploring the world around him. Owen loves to watch the fish tank and will stare at it for long (for a busy baby) periods of time.

One day Owen and Jed were playing around and Jed decided to put Owen on his shoulders, he LOVED it!

This got a big smile and a laugh.

All smiles, enjoying the ride.

So tired after dinner he couldn't wait until bed.

Owen is such a big strong boy and doing so much. In addition to holding his bottle and starting on solid foods, since his 4 month birthday Owen started spinning the wheel on his ExerSaucer to watch the pictures move, has really started jumping in the Johnny Jump Up, and laughed for the first time. He is also working on sitting up (he can do it for brief moments before tipping over) and pushing up. He loves to be on his tummy and spends lots of time there working on his muscles.
