Jonathan @ 8 Months

Lemons!

 

Still happy a lot.

Cries when he's tired and not with mommy

or when he's hungry and doesn't see any food

or when he's left in a spot to play while we all have something to do

or when he's put to bed and would rather snuggle, but then only for a bit, usually.

Going places now, either rolling or on his belly - pulling with hands, pushing with toes.

Snot in all the pictures - teething snot.

He's following his brothers' lead.

Teeth numbers 3 &; 4 will be fangs.

They are much more work than #s 1 & 2 were.

#3 is almost in.  The gum is shaped like a fang, just hasn't broken yet.

Loves to eat.

Still nursing 2 or 3 times a day.

I think he's tired of baby food.

Still eats it.

Loves to eat finger foods.

Loves avocado and bananas in his mesh feeder,

but I hate cleaning those.
Loves to eat bites off my plate.

Grabbed a piece of Grandpa's steak off his plate the other day.

When we noticed him, he was sucking every bit of flavor off that thing.

 Got lots of french fries on our last trip and was happy about that.

Has a patch of long hair front and center that loves to misbehave.

Very hard to get that section to lay down.

Loves his bath time a lot now.

My dear friend Monica (one of my BEST friends ; )
 gave him an inflatable tub with a big seal head looking at baby.

When I first put him in he freaked out like never before.

He thought the seal was going to eat him is the kids' theory.

On the 3rd bath in that thing, he was grabbing the seal and hitting it.

Therapy?

Loves to play with his siblings.

Loves to be outside in the stroller or backpack.

Loves to make old ladies smile in the grocery store check out line.

Loves to destroy paper.

Loves to chew on park bark.

Loves to grab cell phones or tablets.

Loves to be talked to or even better to be sung to.

Still adored by all of us!
