8 months old!!

He weighs about 18.5 lbs and I didn't measure his length. He is so much fun to have around. V and I are so very thankful for this little bundle of joy. He brightens up our lives. Every month we say this is our favorite month because each month is something new. :)

He is eating pretty much any vegetable or fruit you put in front of him. We tried giving him ham for the first time last night and it didn't go so well. He spit it out as soon as we put it in his mouth. So, we are going to try chicken tonight and see how that goes. His favorite vegetable is squash and favorite fruit is pears. Well, this is what I think his favorites are....if he could talk he might tell me I was crazy! He just devours these two things when you are feeding him. If you don't go fast enough he gets mad! :)

He isn't sleeping through the night anymore. He wakes up about 2 times a night and since he has a cold right now it is even more because he can't breath very well. Hopefully this will end soon and we'll try ferberizing him again. lol That sounds so funny. He is sleeping with us for most of the night. We lay him down in bed at first and then if he wakes up we just put him in bed with us. We are usually missing him by the time he wakes up anyways. I love having him in our bed. I like knowing that both he and V are right within arms reach. They are my favorite people in the whole world!

A just discovered how to make the activity center go around in circles. I was watching him today and he went around 4 times in a row. It is fun to watch him learn something new. Here is a video we got today...
