I cant believe it has already been 5 months since Caiden was born. Time really does fly faster the second time around! We havent even made it for his 4 month well baby visit since he has been sick for pretty much the entire last month, but we have been in for plenty of sick baby visits! 
So I know he is weighing in at a whopping 17.4 pounds. I dont know exactly how long he is, but I know that he is already outgrowing the length of his 6-12month clothes…so hes LONG! Im pretty sure that the poor kid is destined to get caught in a pair of “high-water” pants at some time in his life. It seems like one day something fits him GREAT and then the next time its clean Im saying well this may be the last time you get to wear this outfit!
He has hit his milestones so much earlier than Kayli ever did, and Im scared that I will be running around chasing after him and Kayli before too long. Since I havent posted it before here they are; he rolled from front to back at 2.5 months and then from back to front just a few days later. He has been sitting up really well for about 2 weeks now…crawling is really just around the corner and HE cannot wait. He gets so frustrated when he wants something and its just not in arms reach. He has gotten really good at rolling around to get what he wants and he will roll from one end of the family room to the other in just a matter of 1 or 2 minutes! Kayli thinks its a lot of fun to terrorize him by taking away the thing he rolls to or by rolling him in the opposite direction away from the toy or shoe or whatever it may be. We are working on the concept of not terrorizing Baby Brother, but we have a long way to go and many more 2 minute time outs Im afraid.
Baby Brother (as most of us call him) is such a happy baby. He smiles most of the time and is a lot of fun once you get him laughing he cant stop. I dont remember Kayli ever being so content to just sit and play. Most of the time he prefers to be down on the floor playing on his own, although he does have his moments. He rarely cries which is a welcomed break since Kayli still has her occassional crying fits. Most of the time Caiden looks at her like what is your problem, but on a few occassions he has gotten upset as well.
We are so grateful to have Caiden and Kayli in our lives. I feel so blessed to be their Mom!
