I am in denial that Edison is only one month away from starting solids. I feel like he is just a baby but when I look at him, I can't deny it anymore. He is starting to look like a real person. Something that is guaranteed to make Edison happy is to smother his face with kisses. I love kissing his face and so this works out perfectly. He still spits up but it seems to be happening less and I can also kind of predict when it is going to happen. He likes being smashed: having Alex hug him by lying on top of him, having big balls resting on his stomach, etc. He is such a cutie. I can't contain my kisses around him. His face just must be kissed.
I spy with my little eye a baby with two chins.
He is perfectly content being on the floor and watching Alex run around.
Always kicking.
I wish Mommy and Daddy would have gone for the house with the bigger tub.
This book makes me have crazy eyes!
No pictures! We were having a moment!
Give it back!
So... this is my bed.
Sleeping in the big bed.
Good morning!
So many pictures, not enough food!
Edison was planking...
...and Alex felt left out.
He rolled over (back to tummy) for the first time on 8/13.
Daddy uses him as a pillow.
His skin is perfect. I want it.
So comfy.
His tongue is out of his mouth 95% of his life.
He sat up for the first time on 8/18.
But sitting up is hard work.
But sitting up is hard work.
He has a great big brother who loves him.
He looks so old!
Toys all around, but fingers are better.
Get in my mouth!
What up?
Sleeping while Mommy made party decorations.
Now that he's rolling over, his kitchen table days may be over.
The fish at PetSmart bore him.
Achoo!
He has a brother who runs around him so fast he becomes a blur.
He still loves having people hover over him.
Buses are delicious.
What's up with this handle?
He has amazing bed head.
Hoarder.
Mommy is sleeping... perfect time to punch Alex.
Sharing Alex's crib.
Here are a few more things Edison does for which I do not have a matching picture:
He...
...gets the hiccups when he laughs.
...still has blue eyes but they are getting darker.
...has so much awareness in his eyes.
...takes a 3-4 hour nap in the afternoon (at the same time as Alex) and sleeps 8:30pm-6:00am, eats, and goes back to sleep until 7:30am.
...has a really hard time nursing if people are making noise around him.
...has zero teeth!
...reaches for toys and loves shaking rattles.

ReplyDeleteI think that he is looking more and more like Alex. I love his hair!
ReplyDeleteyour documenting makes me laugh! you are hilarious and so great at capturing each moment and detail.
ReplyDeleteand... you make me so baby hungry for a little boy. oh my lanta. too bad i can't just get one at the local store. but if that was possible, all the cute ones like Edison would be sold out! what a doll he is.
What a cutie! I would want to kiss his cheeks all day too! Love the squish able ones! Do you ever go back and compare alex's month posts to edison's?
ReplyDeleteHe looks so much older when he's sitting than when he's laying down too! Oh how fast they grow!
You have a couple of blondies on your hands!! CUTE!! I almost died when you said he was 5 months...it really doesn't seem like it's been that long, but he's definitely getting bigger!!
ReplyDeleteOh, so so cute! I'm sad that I feel like I won't know Edison like we got to know Alex at this age. . .Guess we'll just have to come visit Texas.:-)
