5 months, (well + 2 weeks)


Mr. G,

Can't even believe that we let 5 months scoot on by. Our little family has been a busy bunch lately, but you have been a champion at adjusting to all of our big changes.

Now that we're settled in our new place, I think you're glad to be back to your big crib. The past two nights in a row, you've slept from 9:30pm-7:00am after a loong stretch of those 2am snacks. God must be smiling down on us. :) You're also beginning to restore mama's faith in naps...

We love love love watching all of your curious little habits. You grab at everything in site. You've got this amazing power to differentiate between toys and no-nos. At mealtimes, you study every bite we take. Just a few more weeks, buddy. Although, admittedly I've been known to sneak you some tasty licks of fruits & frostings.

You've officially mastered rolling. Left, right, tummy, back. Been there, done that. But you don't spend much time practicing...you'd much rather be upright and involved than confined to the floor. Guess I don't blame you.

And what's with all of the drooling and raspberry bubble blowing!? No teeth yet--maybe in time for Christmas.

We are loving every minute of you. Seriously, there's nothing better than a cuddle with my soft+chunky Mr. Graham.

Such a gorgeous picture! He's so sweet and cute. I think I need to turn Chris into a professional photographer (or just have another baby) because Elijah's cuteness is decreasing from those cute baby stares and chubby cheeked smiles!

Adorable! Our little guy is doing pretty much everything you described, too. It's so fun to watch them grow, isn't it?
