Silas is 5 1/2 months old now. And always a joy. He is growing so fast, he just started to wear some of his 6-9 month clothes now! It seems like it was just a couple days ago that he was born and now he is starting to look like a little boy and we are starting to see his personality coming out. He loves to talk to us and has a ton to say, we just wish we could understand everything he is telling us! He has another cold right now and is not too happy when we are wiping his nose 50 times a day, poor boy.
Also, Paul is just reminding me of his love for books. Today I was reading him a story and he was actually trying to turn the pages and feel all the sensory things on the pages. His favorite book is a sensory book about trucks (it is red, which explains why he likes it so much). I think I read it to him about 10 times tonight!
Another exciting thing, we can put Silas in his stroller sitting up now! That means we don't have to haul the carseat up and down from the third floor when we go on walks! We went on a really nice walk today. It was about 60+ degrees outside today. The sun was in Silas' eyes when we were walking so he grabbed the brim of his hat and pulled it over his eyes so he could take a nap, it was so cute (we didn't have our camera though).
And now for the pictures:

Silas loves to hold on to your shirt, lean back as far as he can and look around
He is very interested in everything we are doing now, especially eating and drinking. He kept grabbing for my cup so I let him try.
Then we let him try a sippy cup. He enjoyed chewing on it
Silas is really close to rolling over from his back to his tummy (his arm always get in the way!). One day he was looking at the camera so I started moving it around behind him and he kept following it. He was so close and can do it with just a little bit of help, pretty soon!

Silas loves to play with these rings, they are easy to hold and great to chew on. He was shaking them and throwing them around.
He was so happy here, notice the triple chin!
And here is a video of him playing with the rings
