Casey is 5 Months Old!

Casey is 5 months old today! He is gaining weight and eating like a pig, so I don't think there's anything else to worry about there. We did have to take him to the dr last week because he was wheezing when he was on his back. It would stop whenever he had his pacifier in his mouth or if he rolled onto his belly. The RN that we saw said it's either a symptom of his acid reflux and/or a bit of post-nasal drip. She couldn't hear anything in his lungs, so nothing to worry about. We got some saline drops for him and he seems to be doing it a lot less. He's been sleeping in his crib overnight, all night, for about 2 weeks now :) He likes to sleep on his belly, which the dr has said is fine as long as we start him out on his back. He hates baths. He still loves cuddling and kisses. He giggles when you tickle him, play peek-a-boo or bounce him. The giggles still aren't loud or consistent, but we just love them! He shows preference to certain toys, he especially loves his catapillar rattle that Piper got him. He gets mad when you try to take toys away too. He rolls all over now to get from place to place! He likes to spend time in the playroom playing in his exersaucer. He absolutely adores his big sister. He watches her every move, loves when she pays attention to him and smiles when she does. He's always interested in what ever she has or is doing. And she loves him too. She likes to play with him and give him kisses. She gives him a bottle from time to time and now that he's more and more active, she is more and more interested. He is still getting rice cereal once a day. We haven't tried any other foods yet, because he's still having difficulties with the cereal. He seems to like it and want to eat it, but he is still spitting most of it back out. He's growing so quickly and sprouting up like a weed. Enjoy the photos and video clip!

Handsome!

He's got this part figured out!

He is so cute. What a riot to watch him roll around! And Piper is looking like a real Florida girl...all tanned.

Love those Dolphins pictures!

Great pictures! The kids are growing like weeds and are so cute. Sorry Casey is still having problems with cereal. Maybe he could try another type of cereal. Looks healthy though. Piper seems to just love him and that is great.
