5 months old!

5 Month Skills:

tests his voice by 'talking' a lot and seeing how loud he can make it (our resturaunt days are numbered)

laughing at us and with us

stronger stander/bouncer/head holder upper

eats rice cereal 2 times a day, and gets fruits and vegis now. ones he likes: squash, carrots, pears, apples, bananas, peaches (iffy on that one). dislikes: sweet peas and green beans (will literally clamp his mouth shut for these so... we'll try again later)

loves to play with his tounge, making noises by playing with it or just to feel what it can do and slobber all over the place.

finally uses bibs! literally all day usually cause he spits up a little more with learning how much food to feed him.

is very vocal when you try to put him to sleep. screams and complains for about 30 seconds but then zonks out! lol

occasionally cuddles finally

wears super cool hats!

parents love him. ;)

We will get to come home to California May 19th - the 26th for the majority of my family and all of our friends to meet Evan. I know I already blogged this but we are really excited to have an official date and something to plan for. ;) Evan wants to do the following (in no particular order):

Go to The Apple Pan in Santa Monica

Take a buddy picture with his 3 boy cousins that were also born in 2008.

Take a picture with each relative for a book we will make him later

Meet his great grandmother Nona (only great grandparent on either side)

Go to the beach/see the Pacific Ocean

Be sealed to his parents in the Los Angeles Temple (we'll see, still don't know if his paperwork will be in order)

Go for walks/runs? with Aunt Jenalyn and cousin Liam

Be in photoshoot for aunt Ashley
