Elliot 8 Months

Happy 8 Months little man!!

These pictures get harder to take every month! 

This month has been great for all of us! Elliot is army crawling EVERYWHERE and gets pretty fast when he sees something he wants, which of course is everything he is not supposed to have :) He loves crawling under things and peeking out at us. Makes us laugh every time. He pushes himself into sitting from his crawling position and is starting to get more adventurous and trying to climb up and over things.

Little tables are perfect for crawling under

Why would I go IN my exersaucer when I can go UNDER

Eating is still going great. He loves feeding himself anything he can. He usually has more luck getting food in his mouth when he uses his left hand. As you can see it takes a lot of concentration :)

Some of his favorites right now are mango, quinoa, avocado, banana, rice cakes, chickpeas, lentils, chicken, green beans(he squeals every time he gets them!) and peas. Really we haven't found anything that he won't eat. Hoping that continues!

He has been a great little sleeper lately taking a 1.5 hour nap in the morning and a 2-2.5 hour nap in the afternoon. He typically goes to bed between 7-7:30 and sleeps until around 6:30. 

He is growing like crazy and it almost out of his 9 month clothes. He has out grown some of his 6-12 month stuff in length. I can't keep up with how quickly he is going through clothes! He is such a big boy now, but the other day he humored me and let me swaddle him, I thought it would be funny and I was right! It only last a couple seconds but it was great!

Elliot is such a happy baby and the past month has been so fun and memorable!
