Today was Jackson’s 5 month birthday!!! His daddy decided they would celebrate by dressing like twinkies.:-) We had an off schedule doctor visit today to get Jackson’s 2nd round of Hep B shots which went very well. Jackson is starting to get the hang of this shot thing, he didn’t even cry this time…let’s keep our fingers crossed that he is over shots, next month it’s 2 big ones.
So as you know we usually celebrate with a cake, cookies or cupcakes for his month birthday, but this month mommy didn’t have anything for him.:-( Unfortunately work was super crazy so I’ll just have to make it up to him next month!
Jackson continues to come into his own personality. This month has been filled with more unique noises that become repetitious. He started the month spitting (see the video from the blog entry “Welcome Cameron Alexander”) and now he does this fake cough as if he thinks coughing is speaking. He is still on the verge of sitting up. He can sit straight up on his own for about 20-30 seconds then he’ll either fall to the side or lean forward using his beach ball belly as support.:-) He is also soooo soo nosey! I’m finding it harder for him to concentrate on eating or whatever else because he needs to see what’s going on behind him or with whoever just walked in the room. He loves to stand and when he does he pushes his but out so his body looks like a “V.” We’ve also tried to introduce a few vegetables and those have been unsuccessful so far. Zucchini was somewhat tolerable but sweet potatoes will make him purse his lips closed so we can’t get the spoon in. Of course mommy’s not giving up, we’ll try again next month.:-)
