Max @ 8 months

I had to call your Dad over for this picture, because he can always get a smile out of you!

      FINALLY, you have 2 teeth! They popped through while we were on vacation and boy you made it known! Your bottom teeth are just the cutest little white squares in your mouth.

      You are walking along all of the furniture and pull yourself up on anything that you can. Crawling is a breese for you by now and you can be quite speedy. Except when your brother thinks you're a horse and he hops on for a ride.

      I can't get you to eat for me anymore. You loose interest too fast, Mom must be boring. The days you are at daycare you can knock out 2 jars of baby food and I can't get you to finish one for me when I have you all day. I really hope this passes soon because I am R.E.A.D.Y. for no more bottles. You are still just taking 6oz of formula at a time and you have 4 or 5 bottles a day.

      Most of your clothes is in the 9-12month range. Which still makes you perfectly on track to wear your brothers hand-me-down. But, thanks to your Aunt Amanda, you have plenty of new clothes too.

You went on your first vacation last month to Branson, MO. Even though you weren't feeling 100% due to teething you still enjoyed your first time in a big pool. You saw fireworks for the first time, which wasn't a hit. And you were the best little traveler!

You love your Mommy. A bigtime Momma's Boy. I can't walk out of the room without you crying. if someone wants to hold you, I have to hand you over and step away. You do love your Dada(which is still your favorite and only word). Your Dad says he like a fine piece of artwork. You love him from a distance but up close he isn't so great, lol.
