Don't you just want to squish him and eat him up?!
At 2 months Andrew was 13lbs 4oz. At 4 months he had only grown by 3 ounces and was up to 13lbs 7 oz., but he had grown an inch taller. Now at 5 1/2months he weighs 15lbs 4oz!
At 2 weeks old Andrew could roll over any time he pleased. Now he only rarely rolls over. He is mostly content to stay put, but every once in a while gets frustrated trying to roll. Especially when I put him down on his stomach. He needs to work on those rolling muscles!!
He is a mama's boy. He loves to make eye contact with me and then just smiles so big when I look at him. He could melt me into a puddle. He smiles all the time. He smiles at strangers in the store and makes them smile back at him.
He is grabbing at toys now and pulling them to his mouth for further inspection. He still doesn't love his pacifier. He takes one to go to sleep, but other than that it is mostly to entertain him. He grabs it and pops it in and out of his mouth (and throws it on the floor).
He started eating some brown rice cereal at 5 months old (a few weeks ago), and then we started to mix in a little banana with it, which he loved. Then he got sick and lost his appetite and wouldn't eat solids anymore, so we have stopped for now and I am just working on building up his appetite for milk first, then we will start back on the solids.
He has a great big sister who looks after him. Abigail has got his back on anything. She is always making sure he has his blanket or pacifier and showing him toys or helping to hold his bottle in. I am a lucky mama!!

OK, he definitely looks like a Sims now! He is such a cutie. I'm glad he is gaining weight again. It is a little scary when they don't. He looks perfectly healhty to me though.
Not only a Sims but an Alex Sims! Alex should be proud...he's a cutie!
I had it first :)
