5 Months Old

Adam is 5 months old! We've seen a lot of changes in this little guy in the past months. Most notably, he is putting on a lot of weight. He's wearing 6-9 month clothes already. He also is becoming a much happier baby and has started to wean down to one dosage of his medicine for reflux. At 5 months Adam is:
- rolling from his tummy to his back- anything to get out of tummy time!
- eating rice cereal once per day.
- waking mommy up once or twice per night (this does not make her happy as it's clear he doesn't need more food!)
- loving his big sister and all the activity at daycare.
- putting himself to sleep at bedtime and nap time.
- playing in the exersaucer.
- still working on teething.
- thinking his mommy is the best person in the world.

Happy 5 months old little guy!

New Milestones

Tonight Adam sampled his first tastes of rice cereal. We weren't sure if it would be a success, seeing that eating hasn't been Adam's favorite activity. He definitely has a greater respect for the spoon. He kept smiling, opening his mouth for more, and smacking his lips. We were all laughing at this unexpected behavior.

Elizabeth is also entering the funny phase of potty humor. Tonight while brushing teeth, she proceeded to give these lines: "I pooped on my toothbrush." *crack up* "I pooped on my cracker." *crack up* "I pooped on Daddy's head."
The sad part is that Josh and I were laughing harder than she was...

Duluth Weekend

Last weekend, we headed up to Duluth for a fun weekend. I had the crazy idea of running my first 5K and talked Katie into it. Here you can see proof that we finished! Courtney did awesome and finished in the top 15 in her category. Josh, aka William Senich, helped to pace us during the race and wouldn't let us give up even when we encountered an incline at the end of the race. Goal accomplished! (Will, looks like you missed your chance to make the blog!)

After the race, we walked down by Lake Superior and got some cute pictures of Benjamin and Elizabeth. The kids also had fun playing at the water park and at Benjamin's house. On Sunday, we celebrated Carly's baptism. She is growing into the cutest little girl.

All in all, it was a great weekend.
