HT is 5 Months Old

Where is the time going?!?! On February 24th, Hatcher turned 5 months old! It seems like just yesterday we were bringing him home from the hospital & now he's such a big boy with the sweetest personality & most beautiful eyes & smile his mommy & daddy have ever seen!

A lot has happened in the past month as far as milestones go for our sweet boy! He's rolling over a lot more & is beginning to enjoy tummy time a little more. Not much more but a little more. We'll take it. He's no longer being swaddled at bed time. We had been swaddling with both arms out for several weeks but we woke up one morning last week & he had rolled to his tummy with the swaddle on & we knew those days were over! Needless to say, we've had more sleepless nights over the past week but he's getting the hang of it.

Hatcher is doing so well sitting up & I think in the next few weeks he'll be doing it on his on. His bouncy seat is by far his favorite thing to play in! I mean he LOVES it!! He's starting to not be a huge fan of his car seat although he almost always eventually falls asleep during car rides. I've learned if we're going on a long trip to make sure he has a full belly before getting in the car. A full belly with the motion of the car is the perfect recipe for a peaceful car ride!

Dooley continues to highly entertain Hatch! All he has to do is walk by him while he's bouncing & Hatcher sticks his hand out so Dooley will lick him & he'll just laugh out loud! Dooley really has no idea what's coming for him as this baby boy grows!!

He's such a great eater! We're still breast feeding & are feeding him solids once a day at dinner. So far he's had oatmeal cereal, bananas, sweet potatoes, pears, avacados & prunes. He really likes all of them! This week we're introducing squash & zuchinni. I love hearing him make sweet little sounds as he eats letting us know he's really enjoying what he's eating!

One funny thing I'll add to this post is that Hatch has made a discovery that I knew would happen eventually but I didn't think it would happen so soon! He's found his wee wee & like any boy he feels the need to make sure it's still there any time he's naked!! Haha!! Oh the fun I have in store for me as the mommy of a little boy!!!

I should also add that our fur child, Dooley, turned 3 on February 23rd! So glad he's a part of our lives!

Below are some recent pictures of our little sweetie! :)

We visited my parents for a few days while Johny was away on business. Hatcher loved spending time with his Grammie & Poppy!

LOVE this picture! I have one just like it with my Paw Paw Wilks when I was little!
