Evan at 5 months

Don't even know how the past few months have flown by so quickly, but E is 5 months old now! Actually, he'll be 6 months old next week!...how can that even be?! What a fun age too :)

Evan is so observant to everything going on around him. He loves to watch Owen play with trucks & cars and I just know that before I even blink, he'll move from watching to playing too! He studies & inspect his own toys intently & is especially interested in the ones that light up and/or make sound. Speaking of studying things, this little guy will stare down any food that comes near him. Recently, he even tried to take a bite out of Owen's PBJ sandwich when he got close to him! Evan is still, of course, a big fan of his food--he's now eating rice cereal, sweet potatoes, squash, pears, apples, & green peas, with the peas, surprisingly, being his favorite. He's had no complaints with any thing we've offered him though!

The other day Evan almost scooted across the floor when he was trying to get a toy just out of his reach--I don't think it will be too long now before this kiddos is tailing big brother everywhere he goes! When that happens, watch out mama, I'm definitely going to have my hands full! ...but as I heard someone say once, they'll be full of the most wonderful things in the entire world!!!

Here are a few of my favorite pictures of Evan at 5 months...
Oh, so in love with this sweet little guy!
