My Boy

That's drool making his chin shiney...

What a face!

Well, here he is, getting so big. It's pretty scary- he's now pulling himself up onto his crib rail, a walker toy he has, and the couch! At eight months! For my birthday, that was my present- him gnawing on his crib rail, and me rushing out to get a teething cover for it. He also is making a couple of new noises with his mouth. An "S" and a "Th" sound. Almost like he's hissing at me! And, he's getting very good at putting his arm up in the air and waiting for a high five. Pretty awesome!

Can you see those teeth?

We're in big trouble!

Update

This boy of ours has been growing like crazy, trying to crawl around whenever he can. He has been scooting a lot, not letting his front work with his back, and he gets on all fours and rocks back and forth, too. He's just starting to do an actual crawl in the past few days. He's got two teeth now, since last week when they broke through the gums. It's so cute! He's eating everything we put in front of him, but there are a few foods he makes a face at. He is mostly taking only one nap for me during the day, which is tiring, especially since I am going into work a couple nights a week. We ordered a bigger car seat for him, b/c the infant seat is rather tough to get him in and out of, and it's very heavy for me to lug in and out of the car with him in it! We got it online, almost 50% off what it would be in the stores. That was cool!
