5 Months Old

Our Baby is getting so big!

According to our scale at home he is 17+ lbs, but we will see in a month exactly what his stats are. He used to be such a good sleeper & would sleep for 10 hours w/o waking up, but lately he gets up about 2 times a night. Stinker! The doctor said he's big enough that I could wean him from eating in the night, but I'm kind of putting that off becuase i'm afraid we'll have to do the cry-it-out thing. ;-( We have been trying the rice cereal, but he is not into it at all....we keep hoping it will work someday because i think it would help him sleep at night.

He is rolling over from his stomach now & he's getting close to sitting up by himself.

He has started sucking on his thumb....

And he's still a little chubster. We love him and are having so much fun with him!

December

We are a little...er...I mean WAY behind on the blogging thing lately. Here are some pictures and updates:

The begining of December my family came to visit for a few days before dropping my brother off at the MTC. Taylor is going to Beunos Aires to serve his mission-we are very proud of him and excited for him, but we miss him lots!

Taylor & Cache

We spent the weekend before Christmas in Utah with Jons family. We hung out with the family and opened Christmas presents. Here is a cute pic of Cache and cousin JJ.

Cache also had his 4 month check up...He was 15 lbs 24.5 inches tall and he's in the 50 percentile. He's getting big! He's started to take steps and loves to have Mom and Dad walk around with him.

Then for Christmas we made the trek up to Washington to see my family. The first day we were there Jon and I met my sister and her husband in Seattle for some fun & to take Jon to see the sights. Jon, Me, Jaimie, & Nayt.

Jon and I in front of the EMP.

Jon's first time seeing the Space Needle. Jaimie and I miss Seattle! Haha.

Then it was Christmas-Cache in the stocking...he didn't fit in very far, but you get the idea.Here he is with the stuff Santa brought him. He is wearing that outfit in a lot of pictures I just realized...don't worry that's not the only outfit he wore in December.

Another thing we got to do while in Washington was we went to Leavenworth. It's a little Bavarian village up in the mountains. We did some window shopping and ate schnitzel.

Grandpa carried Cache.

One fun thing about being in Washington is we had lots of babysitters so Jon and I got to go out on a really nice date one night. We went out to Anthony's in Everett and had seafood. The restaurant is right by the water and so we went and walked down the docks and looked at the boats...

It was lots of fun and I'm already having Washington withdrawls!
