8 Months Old

My boys are growing up WAY too fast!  First a 3-year old and now an 8-month old!  This past month brought quite a few firsts for Carter:
  • First Christmas and New Year's
  • Bottom two teeth came in shortly after Christmas
  • Pulling up on everything (this boy might walk soon!)
A few other things from the past month:
  • Still gives us lots of smiles
  • Cannot sit still - he is related to his Momma!  This makes it hard on diaper and clothes changes
  • Starting to really enjoy playing with different toys and reading books
  • Loves his airplane rocker
  • Eating puffs like a champ
  • Eats at least 3 larger size baby foods a day in between bottles
  • Five 6 oz bottles a day - still waking to top him off at night (usually 11 PM) so that we can sleep until usually 6 AM - he is an eater!  Hoping that over the next month we can wean him off this one.
  • He has been a good bit fussy this month but we think it's from the teething and all the growing he is doing
  • Having to put all 9-month clothing away and make room for the 12 month items he is now in
  • Loves being tickled - esp by Daddy
  • Loves, loves, loves his Big Bro - you can always get a smile out of him if Braxton is around!  You can really tell that he wants to be right up in the action of what his big bro is doing - won't be long!
I can't believe we will be taking him to his 9-month appointment in 2 weeks!

Happy 8-Months!

Already beating up on his Big Bro

"Cheese!!!"

Can't get enough of pulling up

Sweet Brothers!

Crib Savers are now on!

"Look Momma - one hand!"

"I am not mischievous at all!"

"Check out my bottom toofies!"
