my big boy... 8 months old!

so big 8 months going on 18. i tell ya.
some things he's up to these days:

• pulling himself up on EVERYTHING! he is also so anxious to walk (watch out!) and takes 2 or 3 steps.
• feeding himself... baby food is for babies after all.
• trying to climb on everything. sticks his little knee up to try and get up on things twice his size.
• loves, loves, loves diego. thinks he's the funniest thing in the world.
• getting really good at using those little fingers to grab everything (including mom's necklaces which he has managed to break several times!)
• figured out how to crawl underneath chairs, through bookcases... our little escape artist.
• lots and lots of smiles and loves!!
  

thanks for the smiles.

and the curiosity

and the messes

and the snuggles (look at those sad tears!)
