May 31, 2012 - 8 Months Old Tomorrow

I can't believe how much Baby has done in his short 8 months on earth.  He can smile, laugh, grunt when he wants something, sit, roll, stand briefly with support and crawl (backwards only).  He still has no teeth and almost no hair.  What little hair he does have is soft and very light brown/blond with reddish tones.  His eyes are still blue and so far I can't find any birth marks on his chubby body.  He loves to be in the stroller, sit and play on the floor and use me as a jungle gym.  I am still nursing him every 3-5 hours, and sometimes more often at night.  He still drools, but I have noticed this getting better in the last week.   He eats so many different things now, and can even feed himself some things (cheese, cherios, puffs etc).  He loves water and we aren't planning on introducing juice until after a year old!  One thing about the Baby that still puts a smile on my face, is when he interacts with the Boy and the Girl.  He smiles with his eyes, if that is possible?  I look at him and his entire face is so happy to see them!
