5 Months...its going way too fast!!

Five months old...I swear I just wrote the 4 month post! 

Mr. Parker has been quite a busy little boy!  Here are some things that went on with our little guy this month!!

-Parker took his frist plane ride to Houston to visit his Grandpa and Nana(my parents)!  We had a great week and half at home wtih family, that was very much needed!  He did fabulous on the plane both there and back!  The flight home was just the little guy and myself, which I was so nervous about.  Everyone around me was so helpful (going through security, etc.)  and he slept the majority of the flight...YAY!!!

-Park got to meet almost all of my family, which was so exciting.  We had most of my mom's side and dad's side  of the family over the Sunday after we got to TX!  Everyone traveled to see us and it meant so much!!  Park loved all the attention and tons of lovin!!

-A not so exciting event that occured while in TX was our little man got sick for the first time.  He woke up in the middle of the night running a fever.  Took him to the pedi my best friend uses and they were amazing.  They tested him for RSV but thankfully it came back negative.  Seems he just had a cold, probably had a little to do with the drastic climate changes from here to TX.  We were so sad that due to his cold we did not get to meet up with his little buddies Preston, Bennett and Logan.  We were so looking forward to this dinner, but we WILL be rescheduling for June...so clear your calendars ladies!!

-While we were at my parents our little guy decided that it was time to start rolling over.  We were sad Daddy missed it, but we got plenty of video.  Ever since this he refuses to remain on his back at all.  If he is not rolling, he is not happy!!  He is just like his momma though...he only rolls in one direction.  That is how my mom said I was!
this was the end of his 5 month photo shoot!! ha
-Since he started rolling he has decided that he prefers to sleep on his stomach.  This obviously makes me very nervous but no matter what I do he just ends up back on his belly.  Due to this I am using his Snuza everynight and for the first week I had him back sleeping in my room in his pack and play. 

-He is scooting now too!  When he gets on his belly and sees something that he wants he works so hard and pushes himself until he get to it. This process is slow, but he does it!!

-He has fallen in love with his feet!  He is always grabbing them and holding onto them.  I even caught him with a toe in his mouth!

-Starting to wear some of his 3-6 month clothing

-Yesterday he attended his first birthday party!  His girlfriend Sophia turned 1!!  Yes that is right, P likes older women!!!

got all spiffed up for my pretty girlfriend, Sophia!
- Not only is he always grabbing his feet, he is grabbing for everything.  If I have my phone, he wants it.  If its the remote, he wants it.  It is so funny!!

-We tried rice cereal a couple weeks ago for the first time and have only tried it again once since.  He is hilarious with it...video to come!!

-Easter Sunday was the first time we took P to church.  I was super nervous and had every intention of running him to the nursery if he started fussing, but he was great!  I really think he loved the music!  But he did get a little scared everytime the organ started playing!

-We have started to work with him on sitting up on his own.

Everyday we wake up thankful that God chose us to be the parents of this amazing little boy.  He is such a blessing and everyday I am his mom, I am a better person!

We love you so much Parker!
