Hello, Everyone :) 5 months have passed since we had our little Oscar. It's been such an emotional whirlwind from start to this point. There have been tears and laughter...getting a bit too emotional here....I shall just get right to the point :D We didn't get a cake this month, only because it was a eally hectic day, as we were getting the keys for the new house.
This is our little messer on his 5 month birthday night :)
For this post I will not do the whole routine update because it's still pretty much the same as last month. The only thing is that he is starting to sleep for longer stretches now. Fingers crossed it's not just a phase and he'll go back to waking 2 times a night. To be honest he still wakes 2 times a night, but the difference is that the first time is around 12am and I'm still awake for this one. The only way this is possible though, is that now I have a morning nap with Oscar. He wakes up for about an hour and a half around 7 am and then at 8.30 he goes for a small 30-60 minute nap,
That little extra sleep just makes such a difference to my day. I'm just more alert and it's just that much easier to deal with the little daily tantrums, that happen to even the best babies :)
The biggest thing that has happened since last month is starting with solids :) I have given him sweet potato, banana and mushy pees. He has also had Hipp organic puree pouches. Only small amounts of these, but he is really getting the hang of eating and trying new flavours and he really loves it which is great to see :)
He decided that spoons and plates are just too 2014 for him :D
We got the Mamas&Papas little floor chair for him for now as we don't have a dining table (it serves another purpose in this flat and we haven't found one for the new house yet) and it's just perfect for him.
Still is size 3 diapers, but getting a bigger size definitely with the next nappy order :D He is completely grown out of his up to 3 month old clothes (this shouldn't be a surprise really :D), but the thing is that 3-6 month old clothes are exactly perfect fit for him at the moment and he is actually much more comfortable in 6-9 month size. He is not big at all, he is definitely at the right weight, but he is just really long. Then again what did I expect with D being 6ft :D
He is definitely more active and more alert. He also babbels and blows spit bubbles a lot :) And is just such a great little baby :)
The one weird thing he has developed is that he likes to sleep with a muslin cloth on his face when he sleeps on his back, or nussled against it when he sleeps on his side.
And that is pretty much it. It has been a really long month if I'm honest with you guys, because there are just so many things to look forward to next month. IT just seems LOOOOONG :D
Hope you enjoyed the post
Stay tuned
xoxo
