8 Months Old

It's hard for me to come to terms that this 'little' guy is 8 months and growing at warp speed. He has been such a perfect fit for our family. He continues to be a mellow, laid back, easy baby. He is very routine and likes his schedule, but is pretty flexible when we need him to be. A few things he's up to at this point: Army crawling- likes to be in standing position holding on to things - pulling himself up - would MUCH rather be eating what we're eating then any baby food..I don't blame him (the other night he ate an entire bowl of meatballs and pasta)! - loves feeding himself (his dexterity is improving)  - drinks out of a sippy cup (it was the only way I could get down liquids while he was sick) - has 6 teeth (4 top, 2 bottom) - sleeps 12-13 hour stretches at night (never waking up) - Takes 3 naps during the day (10 a.m, 2 and 5 p.m) - constantly laughs at his brother but doesn't appreciate when Micah gets too rough/wild - hates his face washed - loves his baths - falls asleep easily without having to rock him but definitely enjoys the snuggles and rocking if you take the time to do it - outgrown of all his 12 month clothes and wearing 18 month clothing (some 24 month things fit perfect?!) - easy to please - and SO cute (see below). 

He has a great head of hair! We've given him 4 haircuts to date and is in need of another one.

How can that not make you smile?

I was trying to pick my top 3 favorites and it was impossible so I posted them all...slightly ridiculous but I can't get over all his sweet expressions.
