5 Months

I feel like I just barely posted that Mr Mac was 4 months!  But as it goes with babies time seems to be speeding by. Although fast, its also been painstakingly slow at the same time, with him not sleeping more than 3 hours at night in the past month and a half. He started off getting sick with a cold and ear infection so to calm him down in the night we would feed him. Now that is kicking us in the butt as he is still waking up and refuses to go back to sleep without being fed. (even with up to an hour and a half of screaming his head off) So, here we are, trying just about anything and everything to try and see how we can get him to sleep longer at night. Other than that....

*Grabs everything and anything in sight (yep, even the sacrament tray as it passes by, be careful, he's getting quick!)
*Rolling easily from back to front now.  Sometimes gets stuck on his belly and gets ticked off before he figures out he can roll back but getting better all the time.
*Still won't stand up on his legs. Will kick and push off of things but pulls them up if you try and make him stand
*Getting better at holding his bottle but still needs a little help sometimes
*On all formula, no more milk from mom
*Smiles at everyone and everything, it adorable. Really enjoying the big gummy smile
*Still swaddle him to sleep but gets his arms out within a couple of minutes every time anyway. Would just not swaddle him but he has to grab his binkie and then gets ticked off when he pulls it out of his mouth, haha
*Loves being outside. Even when super tired he is usually a happy camper if we are outside
*Went to the water park for the first time. Seemed to really enjoy sticking his feet in the water and watching it splash up on his legs. Was a little windy so we didn't get him all the way in so he didn't get cold.
*Size 2 Diapers
*Drinks about 8 oz. bottles every 4 hours
*6 month clothes
*Weight update: Took him back to the doctor twice within 2 weeks of his 4 month appointment and had gained half a pound each time. So I think the he will definitely be up to par now that he is gaining a pound every 2 weeks!
