The Kenner Family: Jack 5 months

Jack of course is still growing and growing, he has made a lot of "firsts" this month and is still the heart of our home and family :) Jack now weighs 19.2 pounds! He has the most delicious thighs :)

Jack ate his first bowl of rice cereal this month and his first jar of baby food. He now enjoys carrots, peas, sweet potatoes, applesauce, bananas, and pears on a weekly bases. It is soooo funny feeding him! If your not fast enough he will sure let you know with his screams and grunts of disapproval, he is quite the character and DEFINITELY has a mind of his own. Jack had his first trip to the UT aquarium this month with his aunties and grandma Kenner, he also had his first trip bowling with the Kenner fam, he was an angel on both outings and really enjoyed the lights at the bowling alley. Jack can now roll over from his belly to his back, and is SO close to rolling from his back to his belly (that arm of his just continues to get in the way, darn arm!) Jack has the most infectuous giggle he will just laugh and laugh and he is VERY ticklesh too. My favorite thing about Jack these days is his voice. He will just hang out on his play mat and talk, talk, talk, talk , talk, talk, TALK! I never knew a 5 months old could be so vocal! He keeps me busy and I am enjoying every minute I have helping him grow and learn. I love being his mommy and wish time would just stand still, Chris and I are so completely smitten with this little boy of ours :)

Jack loves:

tummy time, (finally!)
to have his blanket on his head
to take his nightly bath, it's his favorite part of the day
to eat, and eat....and eat
to cuddle, we are so lucky we have a snuggle boy
to play with his dad, it's amazing to watch him light up when Chris is around
to be outside
to be sung to, no matter how awful my voice is haha
to read books with mom and dad, he is even starting to turn the pages (in no particular order of course)
