8 months

Nolan is 8 months old! Here's what he is up to:

• Wearing a size 3 diaper and 6-12 month clothes. We have no idea on his length and weight, but have a 9 month appointment just around the corner.
• Nolan got two new teeth this month, bringing the grand total up to eight! Four on top and four on the bottom. He loves to bite with those teeth too.
• He is crawling everywhere! He is still army crawling and will go anywhere in the house. A lot of baby proofing is going on.
• He likes to get up on all fours and rock back and forth, but hasn't switched to "normal" crawling yet. Maybe he won't...
• Loves to climb! On his carseat, boxes, presents (from Christmas) and especially his mom. My shirts are all stretched out from Nolan pulling himself up! Can easily get up onto his knees and is trying to get his feet under him, but still hasn't quite figured it out.
• He is eating three meals most days. Loves his cereal and fruit in the mornings. Loves eating puffs or O's and is working on feeding himself other fruits and veggies, but they can be so darn slippery! Tried yobaby yogurt for the first time and doesn't quite know what to think. Chicken is next on the food list.
• Starting to get a little attached to Mommy, especially when he is tired.
• Still waking up to 1-3 times a night...maybe by a year we will be sleeping through the night!
• He knows when it is time to go to bed and he doesn't like it! When we are walking down the hall to his room the waterworks start up.
• Had a great Christmas with Grandma and Grandpa Lynch. Loved crawling over the presents and eating the boxes the toys came in.
• Had fun with Grandpa Rick the day after Christmas!
• Celebrated the New Year with Joe and Henna and slept through all the noise we made playing Apples to Apples and Catchphrase.

We can't believe he is already 8 months! We have never been

so sleep deprived in our lives, but we are enjoying every minute with our never sit still baby!
