8 Months!

8 Months

My baby is 8 months. I didn't used to calling Akoy 'my baby' but recently I have started... Maybe because I don't want him to grow up?! It is going so fast! However I love him more every day. He is so curious and fun to play with the older he gets! He is so happy just playing in the corner with all of his toys by his self. (this come in handy sometimes) :)

New things this month:

-Waves bye bye- Starting to say it as he waves. If I say bye bye, he will wave. The other day I left him with his toys and put our video monitor so I could still see him while I got ready. He has a toy that makes noises and when it is about to turn off it says 'bye bye' Through the monitor I heard him repeat it and say "bye bye' and waved! It made my heart melt! Of course I could not get him to repeat this.
-pulling himself up to furniture-mostly dressers. I have found hidden treasures in his drawers. :)
-Sleep Schedule about the same, sometimes with two naps
-Spent a whole week with me during spring break! Got a little attached. Is it wrong that I like that sometimes he won't go to anyone else but me?!
-Crawls all over, from room to room
-Eats whatever we give him. Occasionally he will throw it up though.. not good :) banana muffins last night might have been too much! (still not the biggest fan of baby food)
(I am stressing a little about how he should have a feeding of fruit, veggies and rice cereal every day....that is defiantly not happening!)
-Holds the iphone and watches little story book/movies that I have downloaded
-Loves his car walker, he goes everywhere with it! (AND I just discovered it has protectors on the bottom that will stop him from going down any stairs! Awesome!)
-Babbles like he is talking in sentences
-got his FIRST tooth! and consequently bits me...no bueno!
-Second tooth a week later
-Loves playing in and exploring his room.


Playing with his new train set

He likes playing with this shelf, so I thought he would enjoy being in the shelf... nope :)
