5 weeks

Today Porter is five weeks old, and my how time flies! It's quite apparent that he's older, bigger, chubbier, and definitely a Gentry. It's funny how often people say that when they meet him. Last night Aunt Kary met him and instantly said he looks like me, which I love to hear =] It's getting kind of crazy feeding him, he seems to be eating more and more! He averages like 8-10 oz each feeding and eats pretty frequently. So when I say he's getting chubby, I sure mean it! He's also staying more awake during the day time and talking to us a lot, not so much any "goo"'s or "coo"s but definitely some baby babble. Usually it sounds like grunts and snorts, but it's pretty obvious he's talking to us.
October is a great month for this family. We usually spend more on haunted houses, pumpkin shakes from Burgerville, halloween candy, and costumes/decorations then we do on Christmas. A great addition has been made this year to our October fun, probably the softest, most cuddly pumpkin you could ever find.
He seems to like his little outfit, he's been smiling all day in it! =]

Well, I think I've done enough blogging for now, I'm going to go lay with my soft little man and maybe get a nice nap in!
