Age 5 months
Weight & Length Miles weighs around 15 lbs, which is roughly around the 22% for age.
Clothing size 3-6 months clothes, but also uses some 6-9 month clothes- seems to be outgrowing things in length!!
Hair His light brown hair is getting blonder each day!
Teeth Zero, hoping we still have a few more months to wait!
Sleeping Miles is a good sleeper. He sleeps from around 8 until 7 am or so. I wake him at 10:30 pm or so for a dream feed, and he wakes up again between 4-5 am. He usually is happy to wake up on his own slowly and coo in his crib just before 7 am. He takes naps around 9, 12-1, and another nap mid afternoon and before dinner (short cat nap). Thinking he will be ready to go to three good naps a day soon.
Eating Miles continues to nurse every 2.5 hours or so and at least 1 dream feed at night. This last few weeks he has been stretching a bit longer between feeds in the AM but then cluster feeds at night.
Movement Miles has continued to roll front to back but not yet the other way- we can tell he is close though! Just before 5 months he started to sit for a few seconds unsupported- taking after Jackson- he is practicing everyday and we look forward to seeing him sit independently soon!
Milestones Miles found his toes this month. He also is starting to sit well.
Favorite toys/activities He loves sophie the giraffe, his fuzzy bunny rattle, and the spinning toy that we use when he is sitting up. He continues to love the bouncer. He also has started to like to look at and touch pages when we read him stories.
Dislikes Miles is pretty easy going these days. He is a very distracted nurser this month and sometimes has to be tricked into eating while sleeping. He seems to want to be involved in whatever his siblings are doing instead of eating!
Words & sounds Miles is starting to chat more with cooing at times. He also has started to really giggle a lot which is so cute!
What we love Miles has a big smile just like his brother and sister. Everyone he meets remarks about how happy he is.
What we don’t love Mommy is looking forward to sleeping through the night again in the next few months, but he's worth it!
What we’re looking forward to next month Sitting up!!
