8 Months!

Johnson turned 8 months yesterday and I just can't believe it!  This month he has grown and learned so much!  He is starting to look and act so much like a big boy.









This month he mastered the crawl.  For a while, it was more like the worm, but now it is officially a crawl!  He LOVES to stand and wants to do it all day long!

He finally had two real teeth pop through on the bottom.  He has been super cranky, yet still the smiliest kid alive.  His sleeping schedule has regressed though and he is waking up 4-6 times per night.  Hungry kid!

He had his first experience with a babysitter (stranger) last weekend and he did awesome.  John and I did pretty well with it too ;)  Today he got to go to Kid's Club at Sports Academy with a friend of mine because his daycare was closed.  She sent me some cute pictures afterwards and said he was a good boy.

He basically eats everything now as long as it is soft or in tiny pieces.  His favorites are sweet potatoes, applesauce, puffs and butternut squash.  He also sits in a highchair when we go out to eat, which makes life hard for me because he wants to be constantly entertained or held.  But, his smiles make up for it!

The weather has warmed up a lot in the last week so when he is fussy we take him out on walks around the neighborhood in his stroller.  He loves it and is so content as we go!  He also LOVES stuffed animals, but mostly his Mickey.  If I put one on the floor by him he crawls over and gently touches foreheads with it :)













My favorite things are his giggles, forehead "kisses" and snuggles while we watch TV at night.  He has also kind of learned to give kisses (with his mouth wide open and tongue out) which is fun.  However, he saves them for very special occasions :)  We love him SO SO much!
