Joshua 5 months

Lots of firsts between 4 and 5 months old. We have started him on solids, mostly rice cereal but he LOVES bits of bread or plain rice from our plates. He got his cereal into his mouth with a spoon on his own so that gives you a bit of an idea how eager he is.
He also likes to spend a bit of time in his exercauser and enjoys longer bouts of playtime on the floor.
Joshua is a full fledged thumb sucker but will humer us by taking his soother once and a while.
It seems like he is always discovering a new voice and has recently started making a car sound when we are in the van.
Joshua is continuing to grow well weighing 17lbs 1oz at his 5 month weigh in (that's exactly 1 pound gained in one month).
