5 months old and we still love him!!

Our little Drewby is 5 months old!! [well, he was on the 23rd. I'm a slacker...]

He's changing and growing so much every day! Here's what's new this month:

He is an insane drooler. Soaks through his shirt in 8 seconds flat. (:
He is a total snuggler...just buries his head under my neck and hangs out. You can imagine how happy this makes me.
He loves to stand on his shaky legs.
He is starting to want to sleep in our bed at night...and why not add a 4th person to the mix??
He is going 3 hours in between feedings now- WOOHOO!!
He is turning out to be very ticklish and screams when tickled.
He can sit up for a couple minutes at a time but then topples over.

He has discovered his tongue and it always scares us that he's chewing on something that Hazel snuck in his mouth.
He laughs harder at Hazel than anyone. And whenever he cries, she comes over and starts singing him songs- it calms him right down and immediately gets him laughing. It's hysterical and so sweet.
He loves, loves, loves playing with his feet.
He suddenly wants to scream all the time and is very impatient when he's eating so he screams even worse then...I feel like I have a house full of parakeets, or as Tom says, injured piglets.
He ALWAYS wants something in his hands to hold on to...his bib, his carseat toys, my hair, his binki, and his favorite, his little snuggly Aunt Emily gave him.

Love this guy!! Lucky for me, I get to kiss his cheeks all day every day!
