five months!


happy five months today to our little guy!  it's all going by so fast.  i remember as a kid i used to get so annoyed when my mom would say she wanted to put a brick on my head to keep me from growing ONE MORE INCH (being short, this was about the last thing i wanted to hear), but now i totally get it.  they grow up too fast!  and he's not even one yet.  i'm slowly coming to terms with the fact that i'm going to be a total sap for the rest of my life.


he's such a little monkey baby - always gripping me with little fingers and fat feet.  he has the chunkiest chicken wings (legs) you've ever seen.  his new thing is to grab a fistfull of my hair at the nape of my neck and - ouch!  total ouch, but i love it.  he's absolutely the one in charge around here, and he knows it!  he's gotten to know me to the point where he will start sobbing if he sees me walk into the room and i don't pick him up or play with him immediately.  i love that, too.  he's really taken an interest in his toys, especially his 'orange,' and sophie the giraffe.  and he is really mastering the whole standing thing.  sitting is coming along too, more slowly, but he's getting there.


we love him more every day - and it really takes us by surprise, but just when we thought we couldn't love him anymore?  he laughs or toots or blows a raspberry or poops and totally proves us wrong.  happy five months (happiest of my life), to my amazing little e-man.

I love him! Happy 5 months, Emre!!! Btw, that pic with his hand on his diaper...looks like he needs the remote in the other hand.
