5 Months

Filed Under: Family, Photography

blog
eeekkk… Carsyn is almost half of a year old. Where has the time gone? I know I say that every month, but seriously does it have to go by so fast.
blog2
See that scratch on his face? The poor little guy did it in his sleep last night. Of course right before pictures. I thought of editing it out but then it wouldn’t be “Carsyn” He is always scratching himself. 

blog3He is so close to being able to sit on his own. He can do it for a few seconds but then he falls over. So I resorted to doing a basket this month. Next month maybe he will be sitting up for pictures.

He still hates tummy time and laying flat on his back unless he is sleeping. He LOVES his exersaucer. He also loves to stand up holding on to our hands. I have a feeling he will walk before he crawls like Dustyn did.

He still loves his Daddy so much, no only mommyitis here. He smiles at everyone. No stranger anxiety yet.
blog8
He is over all a happy baby. Only time he cries is if he is sleepy or hungry. He has been such an easy baby. He loves to talk. It is so adorable. He will talk to Dustyn to try and get his attention. Really cute!

blog9
He is still waking up 1-2 times a night. Once around 11pm and once around 5am. Then he goes back to sleep until around 7am. He is taking 3 pretty long naps during the day.

{my focus was off in this picture, but his face was too cute not to share!} 

I love this little boy so much. He has brought so much joy to our family. Dustyn loves him too, always giving him hugs and kisses it is so sweet.

    He is so cute! I just want to squeeze him! My daughter is 2 and will soon lose her chubbies...I'm going to miss them. Oh, and I totally agree about the out of focus shot...that face is too cute to worry about focus! :)

    These are great!! I do this for Liam every month. It's so much fun and it's neat to watch them grow monthly as you look back. Oh, and thanks for the comment. However, I changed it back to my original photo that I edited. I didn't like how grainy the texture and the vintage edit made my photo look. I'm so wishy washy...lol.

    He is precious! That smile makes me smile! I love how you didn't touch up his scratch. That is part of who he is at the moment and instead of having a perfect picture, you're truly capturing the memory of him being 5 months old. Love it!

    Oh man, what a CUTIE pie! Your pictures are wonderful, and the basket is so "fall" - I love it! :-) And I was just discussing with my mom today how they ALWAYS scratch their face, fall off their bike, etc...right before pictures. Gotta love kids!

    Sweet!! They are growing up way too fast! Paxton will be 6 months Saturday and I'm getting sad...I just vividly remember him being born and it really feels like it was just last week!!

    Bless his little heart...that scratch is awful! Paxton attacks himself pretty good sometimes! (Baby nails grow entirely too fast & are way too sharp!!)

Another one bites the dust, for a total of 4 teeth Another one bites the dust, for a total of 4 teeth before she even turns 6. Craziness. The boys were much later losing their teeth. This one came out at school, so 2 at home and 2 at school so far.

She lost her top tooth this morning while brushing her teeth. All of a sudden she stopped then turned her head and spit the tooth out. I was cracking up. She keeps me on my toes.

Carsyn’s first day of school a few days late. Th Carsyn’s first day of school a few days late. The teachers say he seems happy to be back. This would technically be his 8th grade but we will probably hold him back a few years in middle school before we move him up to high school. Of course they are “virtual” tomorrow and possibly Friday because of the hurricane/tropical storm. Then Labor Day on Monday. So he probably won’t be back again until Tuesday.

He committed to working out and bulking this Summer and made some huge gains. Swipe to see his last day of school photo in June. We are so proud of him.

Another one that needs a hair cut and he has been bugging me about it. 🤣 Didn’t really notice how long it was until I compared it to the other photo. Prestyn had a great year and has made some amazing friends. He can’t wait to start 2nd grade next year.

Carsyn went through a rough time at school, losing his best friend in the classroom, and losing one of his favorite teachers but he has done amazing adjusting.
