Daddy took you to the doctor’s today to check how you’re growing. At five months, you are now 13 lbs, 12 oz–still on the lightweight side (10th percentile) but growing well. You are also between clothing sizes; most of the 3 month stuff still fits around you while the 6 month stuff is long enough. We’ll check again at your 6 month appointment in January.

In the meantime, you are quite happy with apples and, surprisingly, gobbled down your zucchini with great gusto…and a lot of mess since Mommy made it a little too watery.
