Bowie Bachman: 5 Months

At 5 months...
MILESTONES: First Thanksgiving, first road trip to visit family in Roseau, first sleepover with Grandma and Grandpa Vana, started eating sweet potato, avocado and bananas, can roll from tummy to back, in "happy baby" pose all the time, holds his own bottle, first Christmas tree
LIKES: Tickles, bath time, jumping in 'Johnny Jump Up', eating at the table with Mom and Dad, putting his feet in his mouth, "petting" the kitties (i.e. grabbing a fist full of fur and not letting go).
DISLIKES: Teething! 

Here are some photos from my fifth month:

We traveled to Roseau to spend Thanksgiving with family. Here are some photos of our family:

Four generations

My ladies are Aunt Anna, Mom and Grandma Julie

All the Grand babies and Great Grandma Donna

With Grandma and Great Grandma

After Roseau we spent the night in Bemidji with our friends Craig, Dana and Baby Mia:

We went to a night parade.

There are no words for how cute this was.

In November I also had a sleepover with my Grandpa Dick. Here's a picture of us after getting lots and lots of sleep...

And finally here we are picking out our Christmas Tree at a very special and secret tree location that was very authentic and deep in the wilderness and was definitely not the coffee shop down the street:
