Our little man turned 5 month old on Sunday. He is getting older and he is showing his chops, literally. Well, at least the buds. He has been putting his fingers in his mouth a lot and that was our clue that he was teething. He won’t take to the teethers people have given him. His fingers will do just fine, thank you. He is even doing this funny thing with his gums where he looks like an old man without dentures like he is gumming his food.
You can tell that he is getting ready to eat solid foods because he keeps watching his mommy and daddy eat intently. He will even reach for his mommy’s cup of coffee (or water). I think it is with the hope to drink from the cup himself. He is even trying to hold his own bottle.
Our little man is trying to grow up fast. He even wants to walk before he even crawled. Even before he has rolled over. He likes to stand on his own two feet on daddy’s stomach or on the floor.
Mommy and daddy are dreading what he is going to be like when he does walk. That is why mommy is going to Zumba classes so that she can be fit enough to chase after the little guy.
