Levi- 5 months


Sleep:
He sleeps 12 hours at night from 9 pm to 9 am with 2-3 naps during the day, one about 45 minutes at a time and one long one of a couple hours.
Clothes:
He is wearing a few 3-6 month clothes, starting to transition to 6-9, size 1 diapers.

Food:
Shortly after he turned 4 months, we started solids of rice cereal, then have added one veggie or fruit  every 3-4 days since. He's still mainly nursing 3-4 times a day.

Socially:
We do play dates often for big brother's sakes and two of our closest friends have babies around Levi's age as well.

Developmentally:
He holds his head steady when upright, no more wobbling :-)
On his stomach, he can raise his chest supported by his arms
Focuses on objects big and small that grab his attention, like mommy's hair
His squealing makes me laugh
Reaching past his toes. He'll reach with his hands to what interests him instead of just scooting forward on his tummy.
Smiles spontaneously and he smiles back when we smile first at him.
Keeps his head level when pulled to sitting
He enjoys being pulled to a standing position holding on to our fingers.
His baby talk is precious and will hold a fascinating conversation with mom or dad
Doesn't spit very much
'Sits' all the way forward, for a few seconds.... then rolls over to his stomach
Since he can sit supported, when we go out to eat he sits in an upright high chair. (His high chair at home has been in the reclined position) When he experiences firsts, his personality really comes out. He's a happy sweet little guy.
