22 weeks and 5 months

Yesterday Liam turned 5 months, I had every intention of blogging about it and taking pictures but then I woke up ridiculously dizzy and took my first sick day since I started here in Modesto over 4 years ago.  Needless to say, I didn't get to taking the pictures or blogging.  Today I'm at about 75% and that's enough to get the pictures taken and up on the blog.

5 month stats (done at home):
weight: 18.25 pounds
height: 27 inches

clothing size:  6-12m in all clothes, 9m carter's pjs, 9-18m onesies (weird sizing, right?!), bumgenius are totally unsnapped and on the highest rise (I suspect we're going to go back to the 2nd snap once he gets the hang of crawling and loses some chunk on his thighs), 6-12m shoes


I have to go back to the beginning so you can see just where he's come from...my little 8#7oz doesn't seem so big anymore!




Drumroll Please......5 MONTHS!!!!











What he's doing now:

sitting in his highchair for dinner and sucking his thumb/fingers


working HARD at crawling, he does a short of army crawl/roll/scoot to get around pretty fast for such a little guy, I think Eclair better enjoy her last few weeks of being able to get away from him easily


A little blurry but it's one of my favs

Had his first babysitter.  Andrea came to help out when I was on call and Dominic was away at a baseball game, she ended up watching him for about an hour total while I was away at a delivery but hung out with us for most of the afternoon and evening

Here are the Picture People 5 month shots:




On another note, we finally finished our family tree.  Andrea was kind enough to write the names, since her handwriting is spectacular, when she was here to watch Liam.  We got the tree as a wedding gift from the Jensen's and Cindy...almost 3yrs later we got it finished!  I LOVE IT!




Next week we're really looking forward to our trip up to Washington for Dominic's 10 year reunion.  It's been about a month since everyone's seen him and he's just developed so much since then that I can't wait for them to see all his 'tricks' in person!
