Ford is Five Months!

So, I'm just going to come right out and say it.... I STINK at posting these on time! Hah, so now that we've got that out of the way---- Ford officially is 5 months and a week and a half now, but hey.... time flies when your having fun and GEEZ that's what this last month has been- FUN!

Ford,
Wow, what a busy month you've had! Not only have you made your way through rice cereal, oatmeal cereal, and all your yellow veggies but you've popped out two TEETH!!! Yes, that's right your five months old and you have  your two bottom front teeth!!!! They are taking forever to come all the way in, but the point is, they're out and they HURT when you gnaw on your parents fingers!!! Ouch!

You are SO close to crawling!! You roll over and then try desperately to flail yourself to move! The other day we noticed that you've figured out how to lift your bum off the ground and stand on your legs with your arms in the crawling position.... it's hilarious!

Your also really getting into your toys. You've learned to hold them, eat them, and throw them. You've launched several  HARD toys right at your Mom! Which has me thinking, why the heck aren't these dang things softer, they hurt!!!

You've now been in the pool several times and while we were in Florida we even took you to the beach for your first " Beach Trip!" You loved it!!! Grandpa got you a pretty cool float which actually let you float alone ( obviously Mommy was still holding it) but I'm convinced you loved the feel of independence! I'm pretty certain that the more you grow, the more independent you'll become considering you seem to demostrate that stubborn streak your Dad and I BOTH have... uhoh :).

In short, this has been my FAVORITE month so far and has me thinking this Mommy stuff isn't SO hard after all. Love you my little one :).
