Another Month Gone

It's that time again.

Bennett is another month older.

5 months!!!

I really love this age.  He's still a sweet, cuddly little baby, but he sleeps (most of the time) when he should and is becoming so social!

He sleeps pretty well, going to bed between 6 and 7 and waking up between 6 and 7.  Sometimes he wakes up around 5ish and we just pop his binky back in and he's good until morning.  The biggest thing about Bennett is that he is such a content, chill baby.  People are always commenting on how mellow he is.  He rolls with the punches quite well.

He is also sooooo giggly!  Whenever anyone around him laughs, he will usually laugh.  He knows just how conversations are supposed to work and is eager to be apart of the fun.  Last week in sacrament meeting, he was full on belly laughing during the sacrament.  So not reverent, but so adorable!

Here are a bunch of random pictures of Bennett:

He's so happy when he's surrounded by us.

I must have made a really funny face!

He spends a lot of time hanging out with Addie.

He is my cuddle bug and mine alone!
Scott tries to get Bennett to cuddle, but he won't have had it!  Those rights are reserved for his Momma.

Do you see the massive mosquito bite?!
His fair skin shows every little mark as if he's being beat.  But we would never do that:)

He got to go to the temple for the first time and was happy as usual.

 He likes to wake up early in the morning.  Early to me is 6:30.  Since he and Addie share a room, this means Addie (who usually sleeps until 7:30ish) is also up.  I am so not ready to start our day this early, that lot's of times we'll just come snuggle in my bed.  This particularly morning, Bennett kept launching himself on top of Addie.  He was out of control!  He wanted to be with her so badly.  Finally, I stopped fighting it and I let him maul her until she had had enough.  I loved seeing my kids really playing together!  See how happy Addie is?!  She really loves him.

He was particularly sleeping during this squash feeding.  He kept rubbing his eyes when I was feeding him, which rubbed squash ALL over his entire face.  It was adorable!

My goodness, this boy melts our heart!
