'Sup with Dre: 5 Months Old

Yo, it's me, your boy Dre, with an update on my latest and greatests. This has been one happenin' month, lemme tell ya all about it....

First, no surprise to any of y'all, I grew.

5 month stats:

Length: 26in.

Weight: 19lbs

This is still bigger than my sissy when she was a whole month older than I am now, by a pound and an inch! Yee, yeah! (chest pound) Mama calls me her "Chocolate Chunk."

Ma is happy that I've figured out my hands more in the last 4 weeks. She was all like, "Oh no, what if his fingers don't work?" And I was all, "Yo ma, chill-out, I got dis."

The women in my life, that would be Ma and Sis, can be pretty exhausting.

I know some of you folks out there are feeling me on this one.

Something new I'm also doing these days is sitting up on my own. I'm pretty balanced, and once again Ma is proud. She's such an easy please, gotta love her.

Sis has been helpin' me out a lot, as usual. I gotta admit, I'm kinda a sucker for her, she's pretty sweet. Did you know she helped me learn to roll over, she cleans up my ever-present messes, sings to me all the time, and feeds me breakfast? Yeah, pretty nice. One thing though that kinda freaks people out about her ever since I've been here is, she does have this weird way of talking to me with her teeth all gritted and voice all deep. "You're a widdle boy-ee, widdle boy-ee, my widdle boy-ee! Whatchoo doooowin? " Gotta admit, I go nuts for it.

So I mentioned that I grew, right? Yeah, well so did my fro and Ma had a hard time keepin' my hands out of it (it feels so awesome, y'all!), and it was gettin' matted in the back and broccoli-like on the top, so she cut it.

Now some of y'all are gonna fuss about this saying I'm "so little" and "just let it be," but believe me, she made the right call on this one. I was beginning to loose my coolness (I know, who knew it was possible?) with this lofa-lookin' deal on my head.

Check me.

Now folks can better see the total stud underneath. Soopa cool.
