Touching Grabbing and Rolling

Drew is now 5 months and 2 weeks old. He measures 26 1/4" inches long and 15.9 pounds. It is incredible how fast he is catching on to things. He has started to grab at everything in sight, and he has become very good at rolling back and forth from his belly to his back ( almost too good). This is the beginning of the time in which you cannot leave him alone for more than a few seconds....and sometimes that is too long. His sense of humor is starting to rear it's prankster little head. This afternoon I went upstairs to see how he was doing, as he slept on our bed. When I got to him it was too late, he was already awake and lying on his belly, he looked over at me with a strange look on his face, like he was up to no good. He then laid his head back down in the other direction and closed his eyes like he was going back to sleep.....so I then leaned over him to see if he was in fact going back to sleep. As I leaned in I said....." Drew, are you sleeping or not" and with his eyes closed.....he smiled......busted. He continued this joke about six more times, and I can say in all honesty, it never once got old:)

Michelle's nieces are up for a few weeks, so we have been having just a crazy good time this weekend. I imagine that Michelle has her work cut out from Mon-through- Friday for a while. I will have some really good videos and pictures of our shenanigans over the weekend in the next couple days.

There hasn't been a whole lot of excitement this last month, I think because we have been so busy with everything that we have just not taken the time to reflect or even think about sitting down and typing. I happen to have a little bit of alone time today as the entire crew, has gone to Melanie's Bridal shower for a few hours. I love being a man.

Here is some recent video of Drew and his new skills of moving and grabbing.
