8 Months

My little Prince-

I cannot believe you are another month older!  The time really is going by way to fast.  You are now 8 months old and such a little man.  You are so sweet and happy all of the time.  Sissy has started school this month and I think you are really enjoying your Mommy time.  I know I am enjoying my Shanie time!  I have started to plan your Halloween costume (that I am having to craft myself) and you & Sissy's Birthday party!  I am so excited to have you in our family to enjoy the holiday season this year.  We are going to have an awesome time!

Sleep:  You still go to bed at 8pm and *usually* sleep until 4/5am.  You wake for a quick snack then sleep again until 6:30/7am.  You always nap 2 hours after waking in the morning and usually take an afternoon/early evening nap.

Feed:  You are a picky little eater.  You don't like any of the baby food that I made for you anymore other then the applesauce.  You don't like any green vegetables & really only like turkey & chicken.

Today we:  What better way to celebrate your 8 month birthday than shopping!  We went to the mall then Mill.bury Plaza to poke around.  I got you the most adorable little sports ball ornaments for your Christmas tree.  You, me & Sissy went to lunch together at Long.horn.  Going to a sit down restaurant by myself with two kids (at your nap time) wasn't my best idea ever but we made it work!  You love to grab at everything you can get your little hands on while at the table.  I got you a new pair of sneakers at Str.ide Ri.te and you are now in a size 3 1/2-4 shoe.  You think that shoes are a chew toy.
