5 Months!

Holden is five months old today, we can't believe it. His personality is starting to become more defined. He has started to fight nap time (at home anyway), he doesn't want to miss anything. He's had many visitors this month and had his Catholic Baptism today. We will do a separate post with photos in the next couple of days. We don't have any stats this month, but think he is around 14-15 lbs now. He has started eating some solid food but his palate is limited to rice cereal and sweet potatoes right now, we will be tasting new veggies and fruits in the months to come.

Holden's accomplishments this month:

• He has started babbling and screeching when he is excited
• He is grabbing toys and such and everything goes straight to his mouth
• He has been practicing sitting up but we haven't mastered it yet
• He has expanded his menu to include rice cereal and sweet potato
• He has figured out how to make the jumperoo play music by bouncing
• He follows everyone around the room including the dog and cat

What Holden has done for the first time in July:

• First camping trip and first 4th of July
• Met his grandpa and aunts for the first time and had a great time learning the ways of the world from grandpa
• Met his godparents, Carolina and Scott, got spoiled rotten and had his christening
• Started solid foods

We love you Holden and are having so much fun watching you grow and explore your environment.
