8 Months Old

Benjamin is 8 months old (an counting)!!  At 8 months old he weighed in at 22.2 lbs which puts him in the 75th-90th percentile for weight.  He is wearing mostly 12 month clothes and seems to be growing by the minute. 

Benji still is a great eater.  For breakfast he eats oatmeal or a yogurt plus a 4 ounce bottle.  At dinner he has 1 stage 1 food and 1 stage 2 food with water to drink.  Other than that he has 3 other bottles (8 ounces) throughout the day, not to mention snacks a plenty! He doesn't seem to be too picky about his food, except that he DOES NOT LIKE PEACHES!  Two days before Ben turned 8 months old he cut 2 more teeth his top, right side and last week he cut the other 2 on the top, left side.  That makes for a total of 6 teeth!  At this rate he will be eating steak in no time!

Ben still isn't crawling, but he definitely has the desire!  He manages to move all around trying to get to his toys or Luke's toys ;)  He is a flexible baby and will practically do the splits to get what he wants!  He also likes to clap, give kisses, walk in his walker, wave, and says things like ba-ba, da-da, and ma-ma.

He is the sweetest little boy and goes with the flow of our hectic lives.  He has brought so much joy into our family and we love him so much!

 I love these hands
 and this sweet face
