8 Months and Growing Like a Weed!

Today Austin is 8 Months old. Time is really flying. I rememebr last year at this time I was just sentenced to complete Bedrest. Now look at us, happy - healthy and Blessed with Austin.

The older he gets, the more fun he is. He is getting into EVERYTHING! He loves to crawl and explore what is around him. No more army crawl, he is up on a 4's crawling...everywhere. He is also pulling himself up on everything and walking along furnature. He almost stands by himself then falls down on his bum. When he is in his pack-n-play he likes to hold on with one arm and swing like a monkey. It's funny!

Austin is babbling like a pro. He loves to "baby talk" to himself. A few times it almost sounds like he is saying mama. It's too hard to tell right now, but so sweet to hear (even if he really isn't saying it.)

I am having a lot of fun dressing him up in little boy clothes. He looks so grown up and handsome. Can you believe he is already in 12-18 month clothes? He really is growing like a weed!

Hard to believe, the Holiday Season is here. I am very excited for Austin's 1st Christmas. I think he will be VERY spoiled by Mommy and Daddy! It's good though, because he needs new things to keep him busy. He flipped out of the walker yesterday because he is too big for it! He is fine and didn't hurt himself, thank God! Time to pack that away for the nex baby...Did I just say that? The next baby!?! Lets wait a couple years first and enjoy Austin for a while.
