The Walking Dead: Return to Zombieland...

Song of the Day: 3AM by Matchbox 20

When I was pregnant, I used to be asked two questions: When are you due? and Do you know if it's a boy or girl?

Now, the two questions I get are: How much does he weigh? and Is he sleeping through the night?

Well, I think he's hovering somewhere around 18 pounds these days, and as for Is he sleeping through the night? He used to...

About two months ago, I was reading on a mommy blog about the "4 month sleep regression", and I thought to myself, Well, we'll see if Mr. Adlai regresses, he is a pretty spectacular baby if I do say so myself...

I'm here to tell you that the 4 month sleep regression is REAL.

(The 4 month sleep regression basically is when your kid hits 4 months old and forgets everything about sleeping through the night because he's growing/teething/being-a-baby and you as the parent think that's the cruelest trick in the book but you deal because you chose to have a baby and that's what you signed up for and there's always coffee.)

The past month has been intense, night-wise. At least I think so. I can't seem to remember...

But he's still a spectacular baby! (See pictures below for proof.)

It's amazing how fast it all goes. Parents always tell you that, and you respond, Yeah yeah yeah, but it really does. He's sitting, he's laughing, he's TEETHING GOOD LORD HEAVEN HELP US, he's rolling over, he's eating rice cereal, he's clingy and shy with strangers all of a sudden.

It's amazing to watch another person be a full person and yet become a fuller person. Does that make sense? I don't make a lot of sense these days.

Here are two of his 5 month birthday pictures! Thank goodness for pictures because I can honestly say I might not remember the past month. And it goes so fast.
