What is happening to my little baby? He is now 8 months old, almost crawling, and full of babbles! Although Trenton still has the baby pudge, he is starting to slim out a little. We actually think this is because he is going through a growth spurt--length wise. He honestly looks like he is growing everyday! He is probably in the 18 lbs range, which I'm sure is below average like they tell us at every doctor's visit. However, there are no doctor concerns and we are happy with his weight.
The biggest accomplishment this month was probably the teeth. 4 top teeth made their appearance. Trenton handled it like a champ!
He is also so close to crawling! I feel like we've been saying that for awhile, but I really think it is coming up. He has been twisting and turning all over the place, and he even gets up on his knees to rock. When you lay him in his crib, the next time you glance at the baby monitor, he is out of sight. You end up going to reposition the video monitor. Daddy lowered Trenton's mattress this month because he'd pull on the bumper. It scared us that he'd suddenly realize he could pull himself up to the standing position. It is a matter of days before he takes off, and it is about time Mommy and Daddy baby proof the house for good!
He loves to bounce more than ever before. His doorway jumper and Granna and Opa's jumperoo are definitely favorite toys at this age. He also enjoys the pop up toys that he pushes down--kind of like a jack in the box, but with a row of characters. Something with movement seems to be right up his alley--go figure since he is full of movement himself! :)
Trenton on the verge of crawling.
He is such a happy baby! We are so very lucky!
Here is a good picture of my mouth full of teeth! I have 6 now!
These are just funny! He can't stay still for the picture!
