Lane 5 months

Lane at 5 months...
We dont' have an official weight because he goes to the doctor next month, but on our scale he was a little over 18 pounds!
He is starting to hold his bottle by himself now.
He rolls from back to belly.
He is wearing 9 month and some 12 month clothes.
He loves baby food..*disclaimer dont try to feed him peas! He does not care for them! He also does much better when he eats food during the day around mid morning... when I try to feed him at night he gets so angry with me!
We are currently on a formula search. I stopped breast feeding and now we can't seem to find a formula that agrees with little mister like the breast milk did! He has tried 3 different ones and he seems gassy and spits up with them. I'm hoping we can figure one out soon! I want my content sleepy baby back! That being said, either its the formula or he is making up for the first 3 months of his life when he slept them away! Because lately he has been cat napping. We will lay him down and then an hour later he wakes up. I'm really hoping its the formula and not just a cat napping phase! There are some days when he will still take a 2-3 hour nap but not very often! We may have been spoiled with that!
He is SO NOT a schedule baby! I STILL don't have a set schedule for him. Each day is a new day and a new attitude, haha. Some days he is content as can be and other days he wants held all day. He still doesn't hardly ever cry though. Some days he wants 4 bottles some days its 5 and even sometimes he will want 6. I am so chill this time around I'm like okay whatever makes you happy baby boy! Hopefully he can get used to food more and eat less formula here pretty soon!
We are so close to sitting up! He leans forward still... it won't be long though!
He is such a spaz; he loves sitting in the high chair and playing with toys on his tray... it's pretty funny watching him go for those toys so frantically!
He is teething like crazy, but we still don't have any!
He mostly sleeps through the night; we might have one or two nights a week where he wakes up around 4 and wants a bottle. If so, he goes back to sleep afterwards. I'm hoping its just his teething phase waking him up and hopefully they can come in soon!
Hunter is loving his baby brother. He melts my heart when he hugs and loves on him so often! We took Lane to Nashville this past weekend to watch Jared run and when we returned Hunter said I missed my brother! SO SWEET! <3
Here are a few pictures of month 5 with this sweetie pie!
