Five Months!

I can't believe my little boy is five months old today!  To celebrate, he's had several tricks up his sleeve lately...

Yesterday, as Mommy and Daddy were getting ready for church, he dozed off all by himself as he waited so patiently to get his church clothes on...

Then, last night, there was a whole new surprise in his little mouth...

oh, wait...

almost got it! 

stop wiggling!

there, did you see it?

yup!  his very first tooth is poking through!

(A note to our future children:  you should be grateful that by the time you come along, Mommy and Daddy will not have the time to play with you for 15 minutes trying to get a picture of the tiny bit of tooth poking through your gums.  Go give your big brother a hug for having to endure this embarrassment.)

Then today, in a five-minute time span, he managed to soil every piece of clothing he had on in some way or another.  So, when I put him in his crib to hang out until I got the changing table cleaned up, the mischievous look on his face said, "Just see how fast I can get this blanket off of me!"

Thankfully, I was able to grab the camera in time!

 

 

Happy Birthday, Precious Benjamin!  Though it seems impossible, I love you more every single day!
