At this rate, I'll be writing the 12-month update before I know it! Here we go with th 5-month list of achievements:
- He can now eat solids!!! So far, he has tasted cerelac and bananas
- Determine and communicate, very effectively, that he hates cerelac and loves bananas
- Drink water from a glass
- Stay on his stomach for 15-20 minutes, and know when to rest his head at regular intervals in between
- Bear weight on his legs and "stand" when being supported under his shoulders
- Laugh loudly and enjoy himself when he's being swung in the air and complain when the fun stops
- Lift his butt in the air when lying on his tummy and try to propel himself forward, mostly unsuccessfully
- Communicate in many, many tones of voice, including a low sing-song tone that he uses when he's totally contented with the way life is working out
- Poop in a baby potty - has only done this once but gives me hope that he's on his way to poopy independence
- Say mama (see below!)

My my...not only is he doing extremely well for a 5 month old, he has actually started displaying competencies for a 6 month old! ;-)
This snap is the cutest - are you sure that... (guess the rest of the comment, or call me up to ask!)
