Hollin is 5 months old!

Hollin, you are 5 months old!


You are such an active little baby. Anyone who is around you or holds you usually comments on how busy you are.

You are still pretty demanding, but I think I have gotten used to it :)


You are wearing size 1-2 diapers, but the 2's fit better. Mommy is just trying to use up what she has.

You are very talkative! So much more than big brother was at this age.


You love to put your feet in your mouth.


We think you may be teething, because you keep one hand in your mouth all of the time. Mommy doesn't feel a tooth, but you are very drooly.


You recognize all the people you love. You still light up if anyone pays attention to you.

You are so good with your hands!


We bought you a little swing for the back porch and you love it so much!


We just celebrated your first Easter!


Mommy tried so hard to get great pictures of all of us, but it was kind of difficult this year.

She may dress you and Harper up and try again.

Last year at this time, mommy was pregnant with you and wondering what Easter would be like this year :)

You are taking anywhere from 4-6 ounces at each feeding. Sometimes you want even more! You don't care for rice cereal at all and I haven't really forced that or baby food. You are content with milk at the moment. Mommy gave you bananas today though and you got really excited as the spoon got closer. You almost ate the whole container!

You laugh when your brother is crying or being loud. You also think that Maya is funny. All she has to do is walk by and you laugh.

At night, you still usually wake up once to eat. You go from silent to screaming. There is no lead-in. A few nights ago, you slept through the night and that was nice.

You are wearing 6 month clothes. Mommy sure is having fun dressing you still.

You love your swing, but don't really care for your Boppy or walker. You are still pretty wobbly. You get really frustrated when you are in either of them because you slump over and drop whatever toy you were holding.

You nap every 3 hours or so, get your bath at night and are asleep by 7:30pm.

You still love to be held and don't want to miss anything that is going on.


You are such a sweet-natured baby. It's so funny to mommy to see how much more vocal and emotional you are than your brother was at this age. You two are so different. You keep me on my toes!


Mommy, daddy and brother couldn't love you more!
