Brayden is 5 months old!!!
Here is what he has been doing...
He weighs 12lbs
He is wearing size 2 diapers and still 3 month clothes, starting to wear 3-6 month onesies and outfits
He nurses every 3-4 hours
Introduced rice cereal, squash, sweet potatoes and carrots and just recently oatmeal with bananas
Rolled over [front to back] on July 4th for the first time!
Loves having his fingers in his mouth
likes to stand up or keep his legs very straight [makes it hard to burp him while "sitting" on your lap]
blows spit bubbles [even while eating his veggies- fun!]
reaches for toys & other objects and holds in his hand
finally laughed out loud! [on July 11]
Today, I took Brayden to the doctor to get a shot. :( And also I got him weighed, he's 12lbs. Which means he only gained 4oz in the last 2 weeks. I can't believe he's 5 months old and only weighs 12lbs! And I'm not really sure why he is such on the small. Right now, he gets oatmeal with bananas in the morning and veggies in the evening but I'm going to start giving him MORE. I plan on doing oatmeal in the morning, veggies around lunch time, and veggies & oatmeal for dinner along with milk [breastmilk or formula] 5-6 times a day. We'll see what the doctor says at his 6 month appointment.
