5 Months Old

Drew is 5 months old. He weighs 15 pounds and 3 ounces...that's a half pound gain since last week. I have put away all size 3 month clothing and all his little socks. I found a size 1 pair of shoes in his closet. He will only get a few more wears out of them. His little tootsies are growing. :) Drew has started playing with rattles and other small toys. He has been making sounds like mama, dada, and bubba. I don't think he's really saying those words...I think he is merely repeating the sounds we are making.  He is still in size 2 diapers and eating 4-5 ounce bottles and/or nursing every 3-4 hours. We haven't started any solids yet. We are waiting for him to get better at sitting up. Drew enjoys being around other babies at school. His best friends are a set of 9 month old twins. They are very sweet and gentle with Drew.  The little boy likes to hold Drew's hand and the little girl steals kisses from him. I wish I could snap a pic of them interacting but no pictures are allowed at his school. Drew absolutely loves Sam!  He watches his every move and holds onto his words. Sam is beginning to be more interested in Drew as he sees him responding to him with smiles and squeals. We are blessed for sure!
