Happy 5 month birthday Calvin! To celebrate, we went swimming at the local rec center. We went a couple times last week, and he loves it. Other favorites: Mom's lemon yogurt, water, smiling at anyone wearing glasses, laughing when he gets tickled or overly-tired, going jogging with Mom in the mornings, standing with support, splashing EVERYWHERE in the bathtub, flames (he loves to stare at lit candles), and, of course, his feet.
Things he does NOT like: prunes, having his nose sucked out or even just wiped, going for walks in his stroller (he squirms and arches his back until he's half falling out), and napping.
Other changes/improvements: sleeping (last night he slept through the night except for a quick diaper change- he woke up a couple of times but talked for about 5 minutes then dozed back off), his first tooth, and riding in the car (if he's not talking up a storm, he's most likely sound asleep).
Calvin loves having lots of people around to look at, and will smile for anyone who shows him the least bit of attention. He's a wonderful kid and we hope he keeps on being his happy self.
