Roly Poly Roman

Little Ro is now almost five months old.  He is as sweet as ever with just a few annoying habits.  :)
Ro has decided that sleep is overrated.  Yesterday, he slept for 45 minutes in a 13 hour time frame.  How does he do it?  Matt seems to think he is brilliant and that his brain is in overdrive causing many wakeful hours to "take it all in."  At night, he has been waking up every two hours to eat...it is really exhausting!  At his 4 month check Roman weighed in at 17 pounds, 5 ounces and measured 26 inches long.  85th percentile for weight and 96th for height!  We are so grateful for a healthy baby boy!  Roman is always damp...if you want a kiss, it is going to come with a glob of slobber so smooch at your own risk!  He is always gnawing away on something and drooling all over his face and down the front of his body...a big, damp mess!  Roman recently starting rolling over and can even push himself forward when he is on his tummy.  He will be crawling in no time!  Roman's favorites things to do (besides eat) are: watch Rocco's every move, play in his exersaucer, chew on his hands and to grab his feet and pull them up towards his mouth.  His favorite toy is a stuffed monkey that sings songs.  He beams every time he sees it!  I try not to squish him daily because he is so smiley and fat!  Love this little boy!
