5 months and what I am up to...

Believe it or not, I am 5 months old already. My mom can hardly believe that the time has gone that fast.

I weigh 17 pounds 8 ounces (my sister was 18 pounds at one year! I am over half her weight now and I am only 5 months!).

I am 27 inches long (or at least Mama thinks I am... She had to measure me because the nurse didn't do it at my last appointment).

I am wearing 6-12 month clothes and 3-6 month stuff does not fit well anymore at all!

I am still not doing the greatest job sleeping at night. I have a hard time because I am so itchy on my head. Finally my mama took me to the doctor this past week and after consulting a pediatrician (my doctor is a general practitioner) they decided to put me on 1/2 teaspoon of Benadryl at night. That seems to be helping. I still like to wake up after sleeping for a few hours and go in my swing in my mama and papa's room. I like sleeping sitting up, I have always liked that more.

I am eating cereal, vegetables and fruit. I enjoy real food more than a bottle, but Mama says I still have to drink my bottles.

I am being spoiled right now because my abuelos are here visiting from Venezuela. It is great that they are here right now because I am very interactive and they make me smile and laugh all the time.

I am loved more and more each day. My mama saw some pictures of me when I was born while visiting my great-grandma in the nursing home and she said she can hardly remember me being that small. I am so big right now!
