5 Months and Counting!

Today Finley turns 5 months old! The 16th of every month is now a special day for our family, eventually when we count Fin's age by years and not months perhaps the importance of each 16th day will fade...but for now, we celebrate!

Finley got to sit in his totally awesome, rainforest themed high chair this morning for the first time. We're not ready to feed him anything in it (though he's ready we think), but we thought he should adjust to hanging out there for a little while. This chair was a Hanukkah gift from my parents and while it is HUGE and screams BABY in our small dining room, I've wanted this high chair since I nannied a 9 month old for the summer years ago. Baby Eliza loved sitting and eating in her rainforest chair, but she mostly loved playing with (and being happily distracted) by the toy that snaps in and out of the tray. Someday, I thought, my kiddo will sit in a chair like this...well, mommy, today is your day! Wait, whose monthly birthday is it?
Finley ended his big day with a bath and some naked time. He's pretty adorable wrapped up in his towel so his time isn't officially naked I guess, oh well.
"Happy Birthday to you!"
