Has it been 5 months?

Today Kai is 5 months old! It has flown by so quickly, but it is amazing to look back at the photos of him, just days old. He's changed so much. Today we went to the zoo with our friends Becky & Claire. Here is Kai in front of the Bonobo Chimp Enclosure. No, Kai isn't walking, but he is standing with a little help from Daddy. He has almost tripled his birth weight and is now weighing in at a burly 17 lbs. 3 oz. and has fully embraced his own voice. Kai now includes a blood curdling screech along with M's, W's, L's, O's and H's to his repertoire of sounds.

Another interesting development, following months of drooling and chewing, is his first little bump of a tooth coming up. It still hasn't emerged, but I'm sure it isn't far off! He'll have a mouth full of chompers before we know it!
