Cooper - 5 Months Old!

I don't know how it happened, but another month has gone by!  My sweet man is now 5 months old, and I am loving EVERY second of it!

Here is how Coop is doing compared to the milestones in What to Expect the First Year:

Stats:
Weight: 17 1/2 lbs
Diaper: Size 2, but we only have about 20 left before he'll be in size 3.
Clothes: Very few 3-6 month, mostly all 6 month, and just starting to get into 6-9 month stuff.

Schedule:
We've moved to the 4 hour schedule!  Yay!  Here's what his day looks like:
7:00 up and eat (7 oz)
8:30 down for nap
11:00 up and eat (8 oz)
12:30 down for nap
3:00 up and eat (7 oz)
4:30 down for a cat nap
5:00ish up from nap
6:30 bath
6:45 bottle (8 oz)
7:00 bed time
He still gets up once (sometimes twice, but it's not as often) around 1:30 - 2:30 to eat.  He eats 5 oz and goes straight back to bed.

Cooper can do most of the things that a 5 month old baby should be able to do:
-hold head steady when upright
- squeal in delight
-reach for an object
-smile spontaneously
-smile back when you smile
-grasp a rattle held to backs or tips of fingers
-keep head level with body when pulled to sitting

There were a few things that Cooper can not do from the "should be able to" section:
-on stomach, raise chest, supported by arms {he has done this a few times, but I don't really count it unless he does it on a regular basis.  He lays on his stomach supported by his arms, he just doesn't extend his arm and raise up his chest}
-pay attention to an object as small as a raisin {again - we never do this!  When do I think to show him something that small??  Never.}

Cooper can do all of the things that a 5 month old baby will probably be able to do:
-roll over (one way) {he still goes belly to back, but not back to belly yet}
-bear some weight on legs
-say "ah-goo" or similar vowel-consonant combinations
-razz
-turn in the direction of a voice

Cooper can not do what a 5 month old baby may possibly be able to do:
-sit without support

Cooper can do some of the things that a 5 month old baby may even be able to do:
-stand holding on to someone or something {he can't do it for long, but he can stand holding onto my fingers}
-object if you try to take a toy away
-work to get a toy out of reach

There were some things that Cooper can not do from the "may even be able to" section:
-pull to standing position from sitting
-pass a cube or other object from one hand to the other
-rake with fingers a tiny object and pick it up in fist {why would I try this?!}
-babble, combining vowels and consonants, such as ga-ga-ga, ba-ba-ba, ma-ma-ma, da-da-da

Here's how much my little man has changed in 5 months:

And here's how much he and LL look alike!
