Five Months Old!

Today Cohen is five months old.  I woke up this morning thinking: how is it possible that 5 months have already gone by?  This past month has been a busy one for us filled with lots of family events.  Cohen is definitely recognizing many people in his family when he sees them and has even started reacting to some of their photos.  He really enjoys other babies at the mommy & baby groups we go to as well as his cousins and is interacting with them more and more.  Cohen loves playing with toys and is starting to show preferences to certain ones, Sophie the giraffe is a definite favorite.  He continues to be a terrible sleeper and over this month has gone from waking every three hours in the night to waking every one to two hours :(  But, despite the lack of sleep, he's a very happy baby and is overly generous with smiles for anyone who looks his way.

Here are his five month photos:

Sucking and chewing on his hands is still a favorite activity:
