Vander Lee... Almost 5 months!

I cannot believe I almost have a 5 month old. Seriously, where does the time go?
He is getting SO BIG and SO SMART. Joel and I love to sit back and just watch him soak things in. He is becoming so interactive and quite coordinated. It has been so nice to be home with him a few days a week!
Heres the latest with Van man.....

Nicknames : Boo, Boozers, Monkey, Van Man, Van
-He LOVES reading books. He jibbers the enter time we read and loves to turn the pages
-He loves to kick hit feet like crazy and he constantly curles his toes
-He just now is realizing that if he crys, we come.... Unfortunately for him we have figured this out... ;)
-He can hold his bottle all by himself
-He will grab anything within his reach and try to shove it in his mouth. His all time favorite is my hair which he grabs in two handfuls with his moist little hands. It hurts SO BAD.
-He now LOVES carrotts.... Not sure I can say the same for green beans
-He can roll from front to back like its nothin, he can ALMOST roll from back to front
-He loves to hear himself talk. He is an absolute jabber box
-Hes become extremely attached to his mommy. And while it is very endearing, it can be a little exhausting for me, and stressful for Joel
-He has slept without being swaddled for the past 2 nights and done pretty darn well
-He has started laughing, but not just giggles now, actual big laughs
-He loves his bumbo and he loves sitting in it while he sits next to Joel on the couch

Thats about it for now :) Now for the recent photos.....

 Super snuggly after his 4 month shots.
 He loves the xbox controller already...... ugh
 Vander and Grandma Ronda
 Chillin with Bop Bop. Notice that the tie had to be moved as it was WAY to fun for Vander to grab and stick in his mouth.
 He LOVES sitting with Joel while Joel works from home. We love family home days :)
 At the Easter Pagent at the Mesa Temple. There was way to much stimulous elsewhere for Vander to look at the camera.

 He was swaddled SO tight, and somehow, we come in in the morning to this. How on EARTH did he get out?
 Big smiles for his daddy
