Nolan is 5 Months Old

Today, my little boy is 5 months old!! Bill and I measured and weighed him last night because he doesn't have to go back to the pediatrician until he is 6 months old.  Nolan measured 26 inches in length and weighed 16lbs 8oz.  Once again, we don't know how accurate these measurements are, but at least we know he is growing.  Nolan is starting to scoot himself across the floor by squirming his arms and legs.  I will lay him down on his belly and go into the kitchen for a minute and when I come back, he has turned himself the complete opposite direction and moved about half a foot from his original spot.  It won't be too long and he will be crawling all over the place.

What a fun and amazing journey these past five months have been.  It seems weird to think Nolan has only been in our lives for five months because it feels like he has always been apart of our lives.  I think back to what Bill and I used to do before we had Nollie, and life was kind of boring.  Yes, we slept a lot more and went to the movies instead of Netflix movies on a regular basis, but Nolan brings such joy and love into our lives it is worth a little less sleep and watching movies at home on the couch.

Pooter has finally grown enough to wear the Converse sneakers Nana bought for him when he was only a month old.  I remember the day Nana bought them for Nolan, I told her he wouldn't be able to wear the Chucks until he was two years old.  Boy, was I wrong! Nolan is wearing them at age 5 months!! Silly Pooter!!

Happy 5 Months Poot!! 

Daddy and I love you very much!!
