5 months old...and a 3 year old on the way!

Not a sweet smile picture, but I do love those big sweet brown eyes.
I know he thinks he lives in a carseat, but he does a great job!

Our little one is 5 months old today! And the big one turns 3 in 2 days...yikes! Time is flying, but we are having a great time with our boys. Reid is so sweet and smiley. He loves others, sometimes gets a little sad when you walk out of the room, but usually gets back to what he's doing and is fine. He has started laughing at Luke's silliness and that is priceless to me. He is always keeping an eye on big brother since he flies through the house like a bat (hence the Batman birthday decorations), and I can tell he's itching to be on the move so he can follow him around.
Reid is trying so very hard to move. He almost can roll from back to tummy,and when he's on his tummy he kicks like mad and scoots along. I'm worried he's going to get carpet burn on his face, but so far, blankets protecting his sweet skin. He continues to talk, and give me lots of "ahhhh's" and "mmmm's", but no "dada or mama" yet...I'm working on it though.
He's doing good sitting in his bumbo chair and his new bath chair. I wish I would have had that with Luke because Reid loves sitting in the big tub, splashing and kicking. He was just too big for his baby tub, and my mirror was getting very spotted.
I'm amazed how fast time is flying, but I'm loving this bigger family we have. It's so much fun with two, and we've gotten into a good routine. Reid just fits right in, and we love him so much!
Reid is such a daddy's boy already!
When he gets fussy (which is rare), guess who makes it all better? :)

Meanwhile, the big one is waiting oh so patiently for his upcoming birthday. ;)
And this just makes me tear, the big one at 5 months...sigh, so big, so fast! Slow down Reid!
