It's important to exercise, or this could be your butt!!!
Luca turned 5 months old on Saturday! I am really noticing changes in development. He is starting to use his jumbo legs to stand more and more. I invested in a Jolly Jumper a couple days ago to help encourage weight bearing. You can see his first time in it on the video!
He rolled over - once! He's strong enough to roll over from tummy to back but he doesn't seem that interested in it. He can pull his legs up when he's on his back and likes to grab his ankles. He can pass a toy from hand to hand pretty easily! On the down side, he's starting to get crankier when he's tired but resists naps as much as possible! I have started putting him in his crib where he can cry himself to sleep - which takes about 5 minutes. It felt weird at first but I don't want him to think that I'll rock him to sleep always.
It's been another busy week and I have found myself out all afternoon, everyday! I keep trying to do a little less so I'll have more time to focus on Luca but the time just flies by. He doesn't seem to be suffering! Also, he's getting near the age of crying when he doesn't get the toy that he wants. I feel like the challenges of parenting are just beginning . . . ! So far I'm amazed at how rewarding being a parent is. I am so excited by every little development!
