Happy 5 Months Cannon!

My oh my how the time flies! Cannon just turned 5 months yesterday. We weighed him on our semi accurate baby scale and he was pushing 16 pounds!!! He has now doubled his birth weight and continues to chub out (mostly in his mid section area). Now if only he would grow in length! :)

Over the past month and a half, Cannon has started going to bed between 7-8pm and waking up between 6:30-7:30am. It has been HEAVEN! It is so nice to be able to spend time with Blaine once Cannon goes to sleep and to get some more sound sleep myself! What I like most about Cannon's sleep schedule is how cheerful he is in the mornings. Now that he is getting much more sleep at night, he isn't has fussy during the day, which makes mommy VERY happy! He has also started taking morning naps each day around 9-10am. Now if only we can conquer the afternoon nap so Cannon can stay cheerful throughout the day, and not just in the early-late morning!

Cannon continues to put anything in front of him into his mouth and drools constantly. I think the baby teeth are well on there way...bad news for nursing! He can also roll from back to tummy and tummy to back. It is so fun watching him learn new things! Anyway, here are some pictures of our five month old:
