Hunter: 5 Months

Hunter and daddy "flying"

Hunter is 5 months old on Saturday! Its absolutely crazy how fast time flies. He is a really smart little man and his personality is starting to really come through. He can do the following:

- Roll over both ways
- Lift his upper body up 90 degrees
- Smile and laughs (a lot)
- Chew on anything and everything
- Reach for toys
- Objects when you try to take a toy away
- Razz and babble
- Bear most or all of his weight on his legs
- Sit upright, supported

He is still exclusively breast fed and we have not started him on solids yet. He has stupid reflux still so his pumped bottles of breastmilk (while I'm at work) are thickened so he can keep them down. Hopefully that gets better soon. We will start solids sometime after he turns 6 months old. We are also still cloth diapering and using cloth wipes as well. We absolutely LOVE them, and this is coming from a VERY busy mom that works full time.

We also have Justin's cousin, Haylee, watches the kids while we work. She is absolutely AMAZING and so so so much better than daycare. We are so lucky to have her.

Avah has been growing like a weed. She put on a pair of shorts she hadnt worn in a month or two and they were so short they were like daisy dukes! She mustve grown like 3 inches! Shes doing well in school and is really starting to mature. She has about an hour of homework every night as well...its insane.

In other news, me and Justin's 1 year wedding anniversary (4 years together) is coming up in a few weeks. Crazy! I got a job as a loan processor within the same company I am working for now. That starts on October 1. Things are going really well for us as a family. If only I could stop time from ticking away so fast...
