Harper Update

Harper is almost 5 months old now (where has the time gone).
He has rolled over both ways but just prefers to lay whichever way you put him down.
He is able to eat his feet (which totally grosses Allen out).
A few nights ago, Allen was holding him and he reached his arms out for me to take him. It melted my heart.
He still sleeps about 12 hours at night-usually 8-8. We are still working on a nap schedule, but I like to be out of the house during the day so it messes that up.
He is now very verbal. He loves to talk, laugh and sing. I have attached a video of this. I know that it will bore everyone except his parents and grandparents! Harper starts laughing about half way through but I don't know how to edit the clip.

Weight update-We went to the doctor today and the nurse was happy with his weight gain-almost a pound in a month (pretty close to average). She said to keep doing what we are doing, which includes my 3 am pumping sessions (yea). At least I get caught up on Jon & Kate and now Three's Company. Harper is now too old for the free weight checks, so good thing we can go to support group for those.
