8 Months

I adore this age. So fun and really interactive.


8 milestone on 8.
1) Claps his hands when he's happy. Funny though coz when you say "clap your hands", he won't do it but when you say "Yey, good job", he's so happy that he starts clapping his hands.

2) Has learned to go from sitting position to his belly. He basically lunges with both palms on the ground, then slowly extends his legs. Initially, he was gettin stuck with one leg still crossed but then he figured that if he tilt a lil, he's able to extend his legs. So funny and neat to watch him.


3) Crawling some....or should I say backward. Still working on this but he's getting around, whether it be scootching military style or rolling over from belly to tummy. We really need to work on baby proofing.


4) Eating all kinds of food...he's not a big fan of bland or plain food. You give him baby food with chicken/beef flavor, he's all over it.


5) Talks non-stop. Babbles--babbabba, dadada , mamma. And from time to time you'll here squeals.


6) He knows that he can make you laugh so he keeps doing silly things.


7) Splashes around bath. He loves the water.


8) Gives hugs and kisses---slobbery one.

***Updated with photos**** As you can see, it's getting harder to take a picture of him sitting still. He's ready to go and wants to grab everything. Also forgot to mention that we have now officially migrated him to the big boy carseat and stage 3 cruiser diapers.

Aww how sweet! I love seeing his progress especially since he's only 5 days older than Caleb, for the most part they're doing some of the same things! Can't wait to see some 8 month pictures! :)

He is such a handsome little dude! It is fascinating watching them learn!

Thanks for the sweet comment about Rachel. She is one that thinks of others frequently. We are working with the others on that!;)
