Happy 5-months!

Baby Bryce was 5-months old yesterday, here's what he's been up to:
- He's a well traveled baby, this last month he made his third round-trip flight to & from Dallas-- and he's a good traveler. His ears never seem to bother him.
- He started rice cereal on Monday. And I'm proud to say that although it takes him 30min to eat 2 Tablespoons, he's finally starting to get the hang of it. We figured out that it only works AFTER he's had the bottle. (The first day we gave up after the first 30-min and put the rest in his bottle...I know I know, my bad.) He eats this twice a day.
- He still is a chugger with his milk. He hardly wants to stop to burp and he gets mad when you do stop for him to burp. He can chug 7.5 oz in t-minus 7 minutes. He eats about 34-35 oz per day in addition to any that's added to his rice cereal.
- Mom is still pumping. It's starting to get a little old. But, having routine is key.
- He's in 6mos clothes and he's starting to outgrow those. Some things I still wish he could fit into, but it's just not worth the effort trying to snap that last snap that just causes the outfit to stretch to the max.
- He stands up all the time. I barely hold him and he just locks his knees and flexes his upper thighs and stands. He loves to stand. The ladies at daycare even say that he is so strong.
- His hands are always on his bottle....always. He loves trying to hold it-- he can't do it, but he loves to have his hands right on it.
- He loves bath time. Scratch that...he loves the water. We took him to the pool for the second time this month. He loves to swim.
- He smiles at everything. He loves his daddy sooo much. He likes to sing the ABCs with daddy.
- He also loves his mommy :)

Overalls are so cute.

Kisses from mommy! Such a cute combo.

New outfit we love!
