8 Months old

Does this sound familiar... Joshua has been sick (check the 7 month old post). He is recovering and so we got a few fun shots before he decided he had enough. I didn't photo shop out the shiny snot on some of the pictures just to keep it real. Joshua will not hold still very much anymore and everytime I try to put the bear by him he starts messing around.



8 months old

  • about?? 19 pounds
  • has four teeth that seem to get bigger everyday (much more noticeable while he nurses! )
  • Reaches a little further for things (mostly that he shouldn't have) ends up on his knees but doesn't know what to do from there so he goes to his tummy
  • loves to laugh at his brother and sisters (no one can make him laugh like Emily except, maybe his mom)
  • if someone laughs at him he looks around waiting for us to laugh again.
  • is great at picking food up from his tray but can't always get it into his mouth
  • still refuses formula
  • is becoming a master manipulator
  • has no patience when it comes to Dad walking in the door and not picking him up right away.
  • doesn't smile as freely (still does alot but)when strangers talk to him
  • burrows into my shoulder and hugs me when I pick him up ( I love it)
  • only wants to nurse for two-three min at a time. He is too distracted.
  • Plays with my hair or his foot when he nurses
