Here's where we are after five months.
The eyes are still blue. He's got some fuzz on top, fuzz you might charitably think of as hair. He's very smiley, especially if you sing to him and pay attention to him and feed him and change his diaper and bring him to places with other people who will also pay attention to him. He can definitely grab things, such as his father's hair, but that's as fine as his motor skills get. He can roll over from his back to his front (I haven't been able to capture this on film yet), but not really from his front to his back. He is not fond of being put to bed, but he's a pretty good sleeper once he stops crying and falls asleep.
When he sees his mother or father for the first time after an absence, sometimes he'll get so excited that he has to kick his legs wildly. We call it the 'full body smile'.
On the whole, we think we'll keep him.

What a great picture. It ranks right up there with the "First official thumb sucking."
