Wow! What a difference 5 months makes! Five month old babies are very enjoyable. Clark prefers attention from us, but he can definitely entertain himself. He loves life. Seriously, I know it is hard to imagine a five month old embracing each day, but Clark does! Clark had his first airport and airplane experience this month. He was awesome. We went to St. Louis for a sorority sister's wedding, but were also able to squeeze in time with Mark's parents and brother in law. We made a 24 hour trip and had four flights!
Five month milestones:
- Clark is so close to sitting up on his own. I am thinking he will be there by 6 months!
- He mimics sounds and gestures. The other day he made a "b" sound.
- He rolls over a lot! If we walk away for a few minutes, Clark manages to roll into the most interesting places.
- He can pull objects down from his play gym. (Superman like strength :))
- He recognizes Mark and I when we pick him up at daycare.
What he loves:
- When Mark tickles him.
- Being outside. If Clark is upset, we will just walk outside for a few minutes and he will calm down.
- Watching us eat! He is fascinated by food.
- Putting his fists in his mouth when he is really happy. It almost looks like he is saying "Aw shucks, you are so funny."
- Bath time - Clark will splash around during his bath.
- Our sweet next door neighbor who is five years old. I think she might be his first crush when he gets older!
- Sleeping on his belly with his bottom in the air!
- His first fiesta party and being able to wear the shirt Nona bought him in Mexico.
What he does not like:
- loud noises
- being hungry
