8 Months


Our little man is growing up too fast!  The last two weeks it seems like he has grown in leaps.  Cason is full on crawling now.  If he wants it, he will crawl to get it.  He will crawl over you or anything in his way.  He really loves things he can't have- like cords, shoes, plastic bags- I could go on forever.  He has also started pulling up.  We lowered the mattress in his crib and while it was out on the floor he crawled up and over it by himself.  He is constantly moving and busy.

He still loves pretty much all of his baby food and has discovered Puffs.  He is a fan!  The best part for us is they keep him entertained.  I stick him in the highchair with some Puffs and I can make dinner or we put them out at a restaurant and he's busy shoving them in his mouth.  He is also getting the hang of the sippy cup.  He can hold both his bottle and the cup but he pretty much won't do it unless forced.  He is usually at his sweetest when he takes his bottle so I take advantage of this and gets in some good snuggle time.

I have discovered that there really is a use for that strap on the changing pad.  I really didn't even use the changing pad that much but diaper changes have become a challenge unless he's too tired to fight.  I don't know how something so little can be so much stronger than me but he is squirly.  The strap is now in full effect for most diaper changes.

Playing in the leaves.  He now has 3 teeth so he is a little lopsided. :)
