8 months

Whit was 8 months on July 22nd. Once again life is flying by! He is such a big boy. He crawls EVERYWHERE! He is really fast. He has a little separation anxiety and does not like it when you are not in the same room with him even if he is totally occupied with something else. He is getting better though with this.  He stands up easily and thinks he has way more balance than he really does bc he will all of a sudden let go of whatever he is holding on to thinking he can stand. He stands in his crib all the time. We still are struggling with real food. He gags on everything. I try puffs and yogurt melts but he still does not like them. I did give him a nila waffer and he loved that to gum on! We are really at 3 meals a day now. Oatmeal, fruit and milk for bfast around 7:30; veggie, fruit and milk at 11:30ish; yogurt snack at 3:30(sometimes some milk); 2 jars of something at about 6 and bedtime bottle at 7. His favorite food is yogurt. We love all flavors of YoBaby! We sing the blessing "Oh the Lord is good to me..." and he just smiles every time. It is so funny! He does not really like a sippy cup. He would prefer me to take the lid off and give him sips.
He still naps in the morning and afternoon. His times vary. He has never been a great napper! Night time is still 7pm bedtime. He wakes up early but either plays or goes back to sleep til about 6:30/6:45.
I am not really sure his height and weight bc we do not go to the doctor until 9 months but when we went with his staph infection a few weeks ago he weighed a little over 20 lbs.
He still has not said any words but he does say some sounds like d and g.
His favorite things are yogurt, blankie, the rocking tiger in his room, annabelle(any dogs), pulling up on anything he can reach, and baths. He is really hilarious these days! He will have a very serious moment followed by a giggle. He is on the move and will not be still as you can see from these pictures I attempted! (how do you get them to sit still!!)

Don't worry, I was sitting under him and he was not hurt :) Just an example of his craziness!
