5 Months and a Mama's Boy

Colin, 5 Months Old! 

We can hardly believe our crazy-haired Colin is five months old.  Colin is a very happy little guy.  He doesn't mind being carted around everywhere we go and is a very even-tempered baby though he tells us when he is getting hungry or tired.  Colin is a drool monster and still spits up after every meal.  We've been doing more bottles than nursing because of all the difficulties we've had with it because of Colin's lip tie, his jaw-clamping, and other issues.  Colin is a Mama's Boy and smiles to get my attention and looks for my voice whenever he hears it.  He doesn't mind bottles, but he seems to miss out on the cuddle time with Mom because he's not nursing, so I try to squeeze that into our busy schedule.  Nursing or not, he's definitely getting enough to eat.  Colin weighs almost 15 pounds and is 25 inches long, putting him in the 15th percentile for growth.  Colin is a roller.  He plays on the floor for most of the day rolling from his back to his tummy, and the only way he'll sleep is if we put him on his side.  Colin is laughing and jabbering more and more every day and is so fun to have around!
