January 30 - Charlie is 5 months old

January brought a lot of change in our home. My last day working at Parkland was January 6. I have thoroughly enjoyed a slower pace - especially in the morning - and having a lot of fun time with both boys. Charlie is just exploding with new tricks all the time. He was sick for a couple of weeks this month but has rallied.

• His sleeping has certainly adjusted and settled in to about 6:30pm - 7:30am or so. He still eats late and early (5:30am or so) but that is starting to shift as well and I bet before long he's stretching out those eating times as well.
• He likes to catnap during the day and gets 2 or 3 naps in.
• Charlie is rolling over! Slow at first and he's picking up steam.
• He's gaining more and more control with his neck and can sit up in the bumbo for longer periods of time.
• We had a great road trip to Louisiana for New Year's. He was a super traveler!
• His hair is coming in more and more and is a very light brown.
• Lucky dog has kept those long, gorgeous eyelashes and those blue eyes just make them pop out!
