5 Months

This has been a fun month in the Sharkey household. Landon learned to sit up about 2 weeks ago, although he still needs help, he is loving his new skill. When he's laying in his yellow bed or car seat he is constantly trying to sit up, and even gets a bit grumpy when he's on his back too long.

We also started rice cereal last week, but then stopped since the Pediatrician recommended we wait a few more weeks until he's 6 months.

Tim is off in London for the next week so I've been on single parent duties for the past week. It's definitely a challenge, especially with working, but thank God for Grandparents! Kim & Larry cooked us dinner tonight and my mom and dad watched Landon this afternoon while I went to play tennis.

Here are his 5 month photos. I say it every month, but I can't believe how much he's growing!!

Until he falls on his face :)

Like Father Like Son

Work hard. Play hard. Sleep hard.

My two boys :) Daddy is so funny!!

Landon's Day with his Grandmas :)

Landon spent the afternoon with Grandmom and Grandad while I played tennis last Sunday. I thought this picture that Larry (aka Opa/Grandad) sent me was TOO CUTE not to share :)




Every Monday my mom watches Landon. Its the greatest day of the week, because she arrives promptly at 8AM and has dinner ready when I get home around 6:30 (only on weeks when Tim is traveling...oh, which is the entire month of October:()
Typically they start out at my house, then move over to my mom's house less than 5 miles away so that Landon can spend time with my dad (aka, let my mom use all of her Grandma tools/baby toys)
Here Landon is playing in Grandma's make shift exersaucer :)


Aunt Becky even pays a visit every once in a while :) (I LOVE this picture!)
