8 Month Tid Bits

8 Months...I'm loving this stage.  His face just lights up as he learns and discovers new things.  I am still hopelessly in love with his gummy smile and am secretly hoping that those pearly whites will wait a little longer to come in. 

So what he is doing....

***HE IS ON THE MOVE!!!!  Crawling like a champ.  And if there is a computer or cell phone on the floor he is a speed demon.  He is so funny to watch, his hands plop down like hammers as he propels himself forward.  He stops a lot and goes up on hands and feet with his little butt way up in the air.  Silly boy is trying to stand up.

*** Pulling up.  He has gone from all fours to up on his knees a few times and up to his feet once. (It's a good thing I went to babies r us and spent $250 bucks on gates this morning!  We have also covered the brick fire place with those silly foam covers, atleast they come in brown now.

***Eating table food.  He still gags on a few things but he is enjoying the wider assortment of tastes that have been introduced to his mouth.

***Babbling tons.  I still have yet to hear the "Ma" sound, but we get lots of "ga", "ka" and a few "da's".

What he loves:

*** Most recently he is interested in the Speedway with cars and a spinning track.  I think he could care less about the cars and much more prefers the spinning center.

*** The comcast remote.  Now don't be fooled, this is not the comcast remote that we use to change the channels....its his very own Comcast remote.  He took interest in ours a few months ago, and instead of wasting money on a toy remote that he would never play with, I found an actual comcast remote on ebay and bought it.  Now I'm looking into buying a lap top and a cell phone (not really!)

***  Still a fan of Sesame Street and Elmo is still his favorite.

***  His tower of colored rings

***  The wire maze

***  Audrey Cat

***  The farm animals that make noise when you touch their bellies.  Thanks to the $1 bin at target

***  His cloth book

***  Hangin out on the couch with his dad

***  Swinging at the play ground

***  Music

***  People watching, put him in a crowd and he is happy as a clam
