11.08.16 - 8 months old!

Yep.  Our little guy is 8 months old!  We love our handsome man more and more every day!  He's such a great baby and such a joy to have in our home.  How'd we get so lucky to have such great kids?!

At EIGHT months:
-Talmage has 5 teeth poking through.  2 are all the way in, 3 are still coming in and 1 more will poke through any day now.
-His new toothy grin is adorable!
-He's starting to push up onto his knees, but only occasionally.
-He'll put his hands on the ground and rock in sitting position. Getting ready to start crawling!
-He's able to eat a bigger variety of foods now.  He loves food!
-He can feed himself small finger foods.
-He thinks Mom is the greatest person in the world, although Dad is a close 2nd.
-He thinks his sisters are pretty awesome too.
-He's getting much more coordinated with his hands.
-He's still not sleeping through the night, but he does pretty well most nights.
-He still refuses to take a bottle, but he likes to drink apple juice from a sippy.
-Talmage LOVES bath time!
-At 7.5 months old he finally decided it was okay to take a binky. Yay!

We got a box of hand-me-downs from my sister, Shannon, and I laughed out loud when Darwin put this hat on Talmage.  He reminded me of Dopey from Snow White :)

We distracted him with a veggie puff so he wouldn't pull the hat off :)

This was his first time being okay with one of the "Talmage" binkys my mom got for us.  We had to take a picture to document it :)

Grocery runs to Costco are pretty much a weekly thing at our house.  Talmage was hilarious on this visit because he REALLY wanted to hold the cheese and did not want to give it up.  Not even for the person at the register to scan it in so I could pay for it.  He held the block of cheese in his car seat with him the whole time we were at the store and all the way home.  I finally convinced him to let me have it once we got in the house. Silly kid!
