Five Months!

Sorry for posting this a week late! Rowan had his five-month birthday on March 12. His favorite activities now are rolling (front to back, back to front, ALL THE TIME!). He also loves to double roll, which helps him actually move across the floor. He can do a full push up and even get his whole lower body off the ground. He's getting better at sitting every day and loves to play in his little feeding chair (which we've also brought along to restaurants -- it works great!). He squeels and blows bubbles with his drool.

He had his third doctor appointment recently. He weighs 15 pounds and measures 26.75 inches long. He's in the 35th percentile for weight and the 90th for height (long, lean and very healthy, his pediatrician says). Because he's so long and lean, we have the hardest time finding clothes that fit well. He's too long for his 3-6 month clothes, but too thin for his 6-9 month clothes. Grandma Michelle recently discovered some good finds at Gymboree, though (they have great pants that fit!). And when she told the saleswoman that she has another grandbaby on the way, the saleswoman hooked her up with a Gymboree card and told her about all the upcoming sales (I bet grandmas are their easiest sales:).
