8 months

Gotta get up to date!


Do babies get any cuter? NO!!

Here's what my little man has been up to:

  • 21 pounds 1/2 an ounce, 28 in long
  • Army crawling, pivoting, rolling, scootching, basically working his way to wherever he wants to go (which is EVERYWHERE)
  • Can sit unassisted now, but still can't push himself up to sitting on his own
  • Says Da da, Dad, Ba ba ba, and just barely starting to say Ma. I think he is figuring out the meaning behind Da and Ma too!
  • Feeds himself finger foods and LOVES it. He eats Yogurt Melts, Baby Mum Mum crackers, Gerber Puffs, Maple Crunchies, and Apple Wheels. His favorite are the Yogurt drops I think. Keeps himself entertained for half hours at a time doing it!
  • Up to eating solid foods 2-3 times a day with snacks in between
  • Loves to sit on Dad's shoulders and pull his hair like reins. haha
  • "Giddyup Dad!"
  • Still has this one wake up at 5:30 everyday where he needs a couple sips of his bottle to get back to sleep. We're working on that. haha
  • Investigates everything, especially Electronic things that Mom and Dad love i.e. Cell phones, remotes, laptop, xbox controller, camera, keys, and things that are "off limits" - cable cords, battery cord to computer, air vents, plastic bags, wrappers, price tags, etc etc etc
This is his "inspection face" We see this one a lot. LOL

just getting a little gaming on

  • Also has an obsession with this mini tape measurer
  • Officially has become a good little car rider! wahoo!
  • Wearing 12 mo Clothes
  • Has decided sleeping in bed with Mom and Dad is the only way to go
  • Still obsessed with his morning TV shows. We're talking addict
  • Can't wait for Christmas in a matter of days! (okay, so maybe thats me excited to give him all his presents!)

  2. His love for books and TV definitely come from his mother. All that other stuff like getting into everything and the obsession for remotes must come from his dad! haha
    You know I love you Jared, but you got to admit that all boy part of him (his dangerous side) like loving to hang upside down or being dropped and caught right before he falls comes from you! LOL I love that little guy! He is sooo cute!
