Ok-so technically he's now 5 and a half months old....but who's counting? Liam is getting to be such a big boy! He now weighs about 16 lbs, and it's getting very VERY hard to carry the baby carrier around. Time to shop for a convertible seat. How did he get to be a whole 16 plus lbs, you ask? Well, this kid can EAT! His favorite is still the oatmeal with bananas, but he loves his fruit and veggies, and the new and intriguing biter biscuits.
Aside from eating, Liam loves to play in his jumperoo and exersaucer. He's grabbing toys, transferring them from hand to hand to mouth, and turns himself around. He also loves to sit on the floor and play with his toy piano, or look (and mouth) at books. At this point he can sit unassisted for up to a minute at a time. While tummy time is still a struggle, Liam can now flip from tummy to back, and from back to tummy (though he still has a hard time pulling that arm out from under him.) His special talent is turning himself 180 degrees every night in his crib. Without fail, we wake up in the morning, look at the baby monitor video, and see feet instead of a cute little face.
We're hearing a lot of language now too! Bababa, mamama, dadada are the favorites (his and ours). His favorite time to talk is when it's time to eat! Below is a video to demonstrate:
And of course, he's becoming more and more mischievous by the day. Check out the photo below:
