8 Months

My I cannot believe have fast time is flying...baby boy is 8 months old and is growing bigger every day. He is very mobile and loves to crawl to places where he knows he is not suppose to be. The door to his bedroom does not latch wen you shut it and he knows that if he pushes on it, it will open. I sometimes will be working and will not hear anything and look around the corner and see him pushing open the door, crawl in and then shut the door. I think he likes it when I come over and make a big deal and sat no no and bring him back out. Its a game to him and he gets my attention. 

 Such a big sitter uper!!!

 This is his actual 8 month day...

 This is what I wake up to most mornings...I will be working at my desk and hear him awake and when I go in, he is normally standing up with his big eyes watching the door anticipating my arrival. He smiles and gets so happy. I usually lie down on the bed with him for a few minutes and play and then we come out for a bottle and food...and then on with our day

 Baby is consistently getting more independent and wanting to do things on his own. He likes to take his own bottle. For the first little while he would only last 2 or so ounces and then want me to takeover but he is up to doing it all by himself most of the time. There are the select times where he still wants to be a baby and let me know; I am more then welcome; he is growing up so fast.

 Baby has been teething and a friend said that she use to freeze licorice and then let her kids suck on them. So we tried it one day during dinner...MESSY but one happy boy

 These are baby boys friends at my husbands baseball games. I get out of the car and start walking towards the bleachers and they come running screaming Teddy Teddy...they tend to smother him at times but that's ok

 First time sitting in a shopping cart...I think now I need to invest in one of those things you sit them down in that covers the front of the cart. I did sanitize it before I put him in...and I am missing his socks, I normally have them on him but he hates them

 At my parents house he loves to play in the family room with the toys but he also loves to climb up on the couch and then try to peek his head over and watch those in the kitchen. He has not yet figured out that he can crawl around the couch and reach us...he will just watch and then sometimes whine a little that he cannot be part of the action...he will also sit and watch something for a few minutes, its not very long but sometimes when I look over I think its so cute

 Baby boy has been going to movies since he was a week old...he is still pretty good...we always sit in the back of the theater and have to stand up at time but most of the time he falls asleep and is the bestest little guy. Its nice when we go with my family because there are at least 5 people to hold him and we all take turns...if not, my back breaks...he is a big boy

My curious little boy is always going into the bedroom as I mentioned above and loves to dump out the laundry...it keeps him occupied and that is sometimes all I need.

It has been such a joy to have him in our lives; we love seeing him grow and learn new things. He is for the most part a happy boy who loves to smile and loves people. He is very sensitive at times and when its he and I at home during the day, he screams bloody murder if I leave the room and he is watching. He is so sweet and loving and a dream come true
