Happy Belated 8 Months!

A solid 18+ lbs and 28" later... with a monster attitude to boot :) Nah... he's been incredible, and I find it crazy to have had more time with him now outside the womb than he ever was within. No more teeth have actually broken through, but those suckers have got to be right around the corner- based on the mood swings anyway :) He still speed rolls and "shrimps" throughout the house (okay, I don't actually let him go through the house, but he would if I let him).... and still makes diaper changes as challenging as he can.

On the bright side, I've found that taking him out places is no longer this big stress- at least regarding his unpredictable moods. He usually loves being in the stroller, outdoors, or even in the shopping carts, and unless he gets too cold (in a lot of stores), he is a happy camper. He did fall asleep right before we went into a store yesterday though, and I tried to use the infant carrier to just let him snooze- but holy crap that thing is heavy! He ended up waking up anyway, I don't know how those moms do it!

He's a (mostly) happy, fat, well-fed, growing baby boy- I couldn't be prouder!



(Okay, so he wasn't thrilled at this moment- a cranky boy after his bath the other night- but we can finally give him a mohawk! hahaha)

  1. Wow! There is something about the point where you have spent more time with him out of the womb than in. That's a milestone! He's such a big (beautiful) smart boy now. Congratulations to you and Dave!! Xx
