Benjamin Harner: 5 months

Weight: No idea, maybe around 16/17 pounds? And so so so tall. 

Clothes: He is wearing 6-9 month footed PJ's, for almost a month now. They fit him perfectly length-wise. He has some room in the waist, I'm guessing it wont be long until they are nice and snug, haha!

Likes: Eye contact!! It's so funny, you make eye contact with him and he's just beaming. He could be crying, look in your eyes, and smile/laugh through his little tears. He loves his teething toys, and especially dry (clean, don't worry haha!) wash clothes on his gums. He's our earliest teether, but handling it like a champ. Not significant pain yet, but we can see a tooth about to come through. He loves his siblings and when he's included in them playing. Penny will be bouncing him around, he will be beaming, but I'll have to ask her to make sure she's still being gentle....he may love a bit of rough play already, but sheesh! He is SO low maintenance. He LOVES his feet. He is the first of our kids to stick his feet in his mouth and keep them there. He is obsessed, it's so fun. It isn't hard to make this guy happy. As my dad said, so accurately, "he is magical". He is just such a joyful little guy. 

Dislikes: Hm. When he's hungry he gets a little grumpy. Honestly, that's pretty much it so far! He's truly such a joy. 

Social: So social, he just loves people watching, playing with Penny and Wes and whoever else is nearby, etc. He is so good to bring along on playdates, he will just happily watch everyone play. 

Milestones: He is such a master at rolling over AND is sitting up without help for a minute or two at a time before it wears him out. He's doing so good with it! Which just means he could be crawling in a few months!
