5 Months Old!

I had to double check a few times that all of these pictures were from the last month. I can't believe how much Jet has learned and how fast he is growing. Mike and I were just talking the other night about how  much we love this stage. He is so enjoyable, funny, and entertaining.

Jet started eating baby food this month! He's tried bananas, peaches, squash, oatmeal with bananas, and oatmeal with mixed fruit. He LOVES the squash and always wants more when he's finished. He also tries to feed himself which makes for a very messy dinner time.


And my favorite milestone: He can hold his bottle! He also had his first sippy cup this month. He likes it, but he tries to roll over and drink it which doesn't work out very well. 

He sat up for the first time in a restaurant high chair! At the end he got tired and started leaning over, but he did pretty well. It was new and exciting for him, and it gave Mommy and Daddy about 10 minutes to scarf down our food :)


And the last milestone... He can sit up unassisted in his boppy pillow. 


And now for his firsts. Jet had his first Easter! He got a toy truck with sand toys, an Easter outfit, swim trunks, a stuffed bunny, a guitar toy, and some baby treats. He really likes the baby treats but he still acts like they're new every time he eats one. It's pretty hilarious! He also had his first Zoo trip that day :)



This month he also had his first overnight Coast trip. He did really well at the hotel, loved the animals at the aquarium and only took a 15-20 min nap while we were there. The sea otters seemed to be his favorite since they were the most active. He went to his first Lighthouse, and went swimming for the first time! The water was a little cold so we didn't stay in long but he didn't seem bothered at all.




I know I say this every time, but he is just SO cute! He's the best baby, we never have any problems, and he just loves life. He makes us so happy!

We love you Jet,
Mommy and Daddy
