8 months!

As this child becomes more and more mobile- it gets harder and harder and to photograph him. We get lots of pictures like these: 







But even though the photo shoots are more challenging, just about every day is more fun. He is learning and growing so much! Going through this month's pictures, I couldn't believe how much he has advanced just in one month. He is eating solids pretty much on his own now- he doesn't really want baby food any more- so it's mostly finger foods now. He is trying to figure out how to drink from a cup. He doesn't really like bottles- he almost never takes them- and he has kind of been the same way about sippy cups too. He scoot-crawls and gets around pretty well too. In fact he is crawling circles around the desk chair as I type this. And he pulled himself up to standing this month too! He is turning into a kid right before my eyes! I am loving every second of it.

So here are his 8 month photos:
























  






And as always, here are the pictures off my phone from the last month- a real look into the day to day life of the little mister:
















We learned a new hold for the moby wrap!









The jaguar kept pacing back and forth in front of us... I think that he thought that Xander looked delicious....

We participate in a bowling league on Thursday nights. Xander LOVES it.







Xander got bronchitis and we had to give him breathing treatments- this was is very first one:

Dave has learned that the little human is easy pickin's for food; Xander loves to share:
