Fifth Month Milestones

In breaking news....Mason is officially cutting his first tooth- the bottom right front tooth. Super cute and super sharp :) And despite all the horror stories we've heard about teething fussiness, he has been as delightful as usual so far (knock on wood). He has also found his feet, and just loves to hold his toes. We also introduced him to his first taste of big boy food, a little bit of rice cereal. So far he's not a huge fan, but did manage to eat a spoonful.
Mason has also started reaching out to grab things all the time now- including our hair, and boy does he have a strong grip :) He is fascinated by the toys on his exersaucer and is able to occupy himself for a good 15 minutes or so...a great gift to Mommy who now has the opportunity to get some stuff done around the house. He also smiles consistently and is beginning to giggle and sqeal with delight...the sweetest sound there ever was.
Basically, he's growing up way too fast!
