Michael is 8 months old

Time is flying.  Michael is pulling himself up onto his knees, and the daycare teacher said he was standing in his crib last week.  He hasn't done it at home, but we lowered the mattress in the crib just in case.  I looked at Chris the other night and said, "how can he be pulling up already?  Wait, he IS 8 months old, not 3 months like I keep thinking.  I guess he'll be walking in 4."  It's just crazy.

Michael has two bottom teeth now.  I tried to get a picture but it is very hard to see it yet.  He is chewing away like crazy so I think he'll have 4 on the bottom soon.  He is wearing 12 month clothing.  Butternut squash and sweet potatoes are his favorite, although, he has tried and kept down peas, apples, combo of some fruits.  He's slowly getting the hang of it.  He has a killer grasp and is very focused.  He will laugh when you tickle near his collarbone.  He crawls fast now and when he wants you, he'll crawl right to your feet and tug on your pant leg with his head butting up agains your legs.  He is such a love.

You can kind of see one bottom tooth in the middle of his mouth in this picture above.

Had to take some pics of him eating on Friday night. He was having such a good time.

 And I thought LK looked so pretty...loved her hair in this picture.
