8 Months

Bubba turned 8 months old today! I can't believe he is already 8 months old! Time sure flies. (Can I mention that enough in these posts?!) Here are a few of Bubba's favorite things...

• He LOVES his blanket still, every time I pull it out, he just grabs a hold of it and smiles



• He enjoys rice cereal, oatmeal, pears are his favorite fruit, and he loves green beans still. We are still progressing with foods, and he is doing a LOT better with swallowing and trying to chew. SO he has little puffs like cherios that he likes.



• He still takes 2 naps a day, and usually wakes up once at night.



• He crawls up stairs, and they are the FIRST place he will go to! He loves to explore.



• He is learning how to wave Buh bye. It is SO cute! He uses his whole arm pretty much, and he especially loves to wave to grandpa.



• He is starting to realize when people leave the room and will cry if Sam or I leave.



• He enjoys playing with his cousins! He is getting to know DK more and they have fun playing together
  

• He loves to stand, and he walks along furniture, and even tries to climb up onto couches.



• He enjoys apple juice, and he is getting used to a sippy cup! At least he knows how it is SUPPOSED to work.



• He LOVES to MOVE! Whenever he is awake, he is constantly moving! It is getting hard for me to keep up with him! Man, once he starts walking, I am in TROUBLE!



• He doesn't really like his pacifier, he usually just bites it and plays with it.



• He is starting to show the signs of being mobile. He falls after trying to stand on his own, and usually ends up with a bump or bruise somewhere! This breaks my heart! But there isn't much I can do about it!!

Those are some of the things that Bubba is up to lately. We weighed him the other day, and he weighed in at 25.5 pounds. Big boy! We will be going in for his 9 month appointment next month! Can't wait to see how much he has grown! Anyway, so Happy 8 month birthday to Bubba!
