There is one major undertaking for a 5mo old that will inevitably become the major undertaking of the parents as well: building a hearty immune system.
Gray is working very hard on his white blood cell count. While he spends his days with other adorable baby worms in what is honestly the most immaculate and sanitized of environments, he may as well be cavorting with Ebola monkeys.
As his loving family, we are lucky enough to share these diseases resulting in my missing a combined four days of work last month alone! I'm only whining for the appearance of things because, let's be honest, holding my 16lbs son is only the best way to spend my day. :)
