Time Flies

Sparky: Robert will be 5 months old this week. To celebrate we are having a photo flash back to see how far Robert has come. I will let my little brother brag about all of his changes & skills. I do want to let Robert know that I am very happy to have such a cool little dude as a baby brother :-)

Robert: Thank you Sparky. I love having you as my puppy & big brother. Ok, mommy & Sparky said that I get to tell everyone about all of my milestones over the past 5 months so here we go... I started out as a little guy that mommy called her baby burrito & I couldn't do much other than cry. As I grow I have learned to smile & giggle. I learned how to reach for things & now I like to grab my toes to put in my mouth. I have gone from a strictly formula diet to having cereal & trying my 1st foods. I "talk" to my mommy, daddy, & puppy as well as recognize people & places now. I do daily exercises with mommy, so I am getting a little stronger each day. I can hold my own head up, sit up with minimal assistance, do push ups & stand mostly on my own (mommy & daddy still put a little support under my armpits). I go to the doctors next week for a checkup & more yucky shots. I will be able to tell everyone how the doctors think I am growing plus my current stats :-)
