8 months soon.... where does the time go!

Next week my lil' guy will be 8 months old already and man does he have a personality. He smiles and laughs at anything that Griff does. He tucks his head in my neck when we're meeting new people pretending to be shy even though he is NOT shy at all. He gets so mad when you lay him down in his crib, but is slowly learning that it's gonna be okay and that he really is tired.

He has really started to master the use of his fine motor skills, being able to grasp and pinch things that are small. He is learning cause and effect really well too. It doesn't take him long to new and explore a new toy.

He loves to read (as long as it's not at bed time). He likes books with lots and lots of colors and textures. He has a big head just like his daddy and big wide eyes that have to see everything (just like his daddy). He is really starting to master the babbling to... being able to say mama and dada and baba (Griffin) even though he doesn't quite recognize that those titles belong to certain people. But he's learning. He engages in "conversations" with people and will respond in a conversation like style. Exchanging cooes and babbles with people.

He's such a fun mild mannered kid who is always happy. His Aunt Kate and Uncle Brandon will be here soon to visit him and we're so excited for him to finally meet them.
