Elliot is 5 months

His stats:

Weight: 18 lbs
Height: 27 in
Head: 16.75 in

He is such a happy and social baby - much more so than his brother. He loves to smile at everyone. He is now able to roll over both ways, but he only does it when he's naked. The cloth diapers add too much bulk to his butt and hinder his mobility! The same thing happened with Josh, so I'm not concerned. Eventually, he'll do it with the cloth diapers on. And honestly, I'm in no hurry to have him roll over all the time.

He can now sit unsupported for a few seconds at a time before tumbling into the "tripod" mode, or falling over. He can also stand supported.

I started him on a bit of rice and oatmeal, and he's doing great with it. I mix it with BM. He's really only getting about 6 tiny spoonfuls at a time, but he is doing pretty well with it so I may increase his intake.

He's stopped taking the bottle, so he will only get his nutrition straight from the source. BUT, today, he successfully drank some water out of the sippy!!! So there is hope for him. I will probably skip the bottle all together now, and go straight to the sippy cup. Makes things easier.
