8 Months Flys By

I can't beleive it has been 8 months already! Our little Patrick man is so adorable and smart we enjoy him so much every day. Some funny things he is doing these days are he sings real high pitch and then goes to a growl real deep in the same sentence. He smiles so easily and is very friendly to passers-by that stop to tell him how cute he is! He makes motor noises with his mouth like a pro and even does the lips up and down with his own hand. I'll have to show you video!

He loves things dangling above him, (like the string for the fan), keys, steering wheels, and markers or remotes are the toys of choice!

We went to Idaho for my little brothers wedding in April...

so he learned what cold really feels like! We were sure thankful for the Cozy Cover;)

He is eating more and more solid foods...he loves avocado, bell peppers and grahm crackers. Otherwise he eats the baby food meat and vegtables and oatmeal and fruit in the mornings.

He LOVES to stand up to things...he crawls backwards or on his tummy, but he prefers standing. He doesn't quite get how to pull the legs forward to go forward when on his hands and knees so that turns into fussing frustration. Just stand him up and he starts moving those legs where he wants to go!

He checks things out with his thumb..it is really funny. Quite often we see him thumbing things.

Over all we are so happy together as a family and love our little happy Patrick man! We are looking forward to the next 8 months too!
