Five months

My sweet little Ben is 5 months old today. It's a gloomy day, so I'll have to try and get some better pictures another day, but I still wanted a few to mark his actual monthly birthday.

Here's what my little peanut has been up to this month...

- likes to chew on blankets and sheets
- likes to sit up and look around (with our help)
- is really, really watching Owen more and more and he finds him very funny.
- He loves to hold Owen’s face and grab at his hair. Owen finds it funny too!
- Took first nap in his crib November 19, 2008
- Can almost roll from back to front. Really, ALMOST…
