Eight months old!

This past Thursday marked eight months since Josiah joined our family...EIGHT months! How does time go so fast?? He continues to amaze us every day with what he is learning and doing. I'm sure all parents can relate to that, isn't it unbelievable how fast they learn and grow? He is changing every day, it seems like his hair has grown an inch over night, we now have to comb it after every bath or we get the "bed head" look:-) He is starting to venture up on to his hands and knees and is rocking back and forth like he might take off at any minute. So far, he just giggles as he rocks and then falls on his tummy but he seems close to figuring out that he has to move his hands and then knees and away he'll go! For the time being, he is content being able to scoot backward and roll to get where he needs to go...under the couch, under the shelf of the entertainment center, etc. He is still babbling quite a bit and of course, the squeal is ever present but now he has added blowing "raspberries" to the mix. He finds it especially funny to do after we've just given him a spoon full of cereal...oh so fun and quite a mess too, bonus! He is STILL working on getting the top teeth that have been threatening to pop through for weeks now, as of this post still not through but any day now we're sure! He is feeling much better thankfully and for the most part back to his happy, content, smiley self! Here are the monthly pictures, we went with the bath theme this month. A special thanks to Auntie Ashley and Auntie Nessa for the bath robe, Uncle Josh for the bath toys and Auntie Robin for the duckie bath tub! As you can see, Josiah loves them all!
