Gavin - 5 Months Old

Gavin is 5 months old and loves attention.  He still loves to be held or carried around and doesn't like to be left in a room by himself for very long.  He loves being in the front pack facing out so he can see everything.  Mommy loves the front pack so she can still get things done around the house.  We introduced him to the exersaucer a few weeks ago and he loves being able to look around and sit up. 

When he gets upset he throws his head back and cries.  Usually with no warning signs.  This usually means he is hungry or not happy with the person talking to him.  He sure can be a little drama king.  He must be getting some of this from his big sister.

Kaitlyn loves holding her little brother.

He has started to hold his bottle by himself.  We usually have to help him get his hands in place, but he loves when he can do it himself.

He has really started to interact with his toys with his hands and feet.  He loves blanket's.  When he is getting upset, I will give one for him to grab and that helps him calm down. 



He still likes to be swaddled at night.

Siblings!

I love having a baby who is a little on the chunky side.  I think we say that Gavin is chunky a little too often because Kaitlyn introduces Gavin like this.

* This my brother Gavin.  Isn't he chunky?  (As she is squeezing his fat rolls.)
