The Boys

Three of my friends also had baby boys around the same time Lincoln was born. It has been fun getting together with them and seeing how each one has grown differently. First came Benson, then two weeks later Lincoln came, one week later came Bradley, and then 4 weeks later came Reese.

This is when Lincoln was just over two months:

Now Lincoln is just over 5 months:

(Lincoln decided it was a good place to try to nap)

And just because he is so stinkin cute, here is one more of my little one:

Lincoln is 5 months!

I can't believe my little guy is already 5 months old! Where does the time go? Here are his 5 month stats:

Height: 24.5 inches (20th percentile)

Weight: 15 lbs 4 ounces (50th percentile)

Head circumference: 15.5 inches (less than 10th percentile)

They are worried about his head because it didn't grow in a month and a half. He needs to get a CT scan to make sure that his skull bones aren't fusing yet. The neurologist didn't seem too worried, so I am feeling better about it. He isn't showing any of the typical other signs that something is wrong; he just has a small head. I have a small head too, though, so hopefully it isn't anything. I am trying to not freak out.
