Eight Months

Evan is eight months and I can't believe how much he has changed in one month. He looks more like his mommy and he is on the move. He crawls quickly to where he wants and he is pulling himself to his knees and even started pulling himself to standing today. He still only has two front bottom teeth, but you can tell there are more that are bothering him. He is happier this month so far than last, sure the teeth had something to do with that. Still up about twice a night and eating five bottles a day and two four ounce containers of food for lunch and dinner. He loves his fruity oatmeal breakfasts as well. The new sitter, Patty, is going very well. There are lots of other children there, and Nolan likes that. Nolan is growing and changing as well, for the better. It seems like although he still spends some time in time out, the past month has been better with that! He is doing awesome with potty training, sometimes wet after nap time, and sometimes when he wakes in morning. He does still have to sit backwards though... ;) He is becoming more and more intelligent and inquisitive about things and I love the questions he asks and the things that he says, well most things. He is pretending very well! Nolan and Evan have been very interactive now that Evan is on the move and they love eachother very much. Even Patty said the other day when I picked them up that she had never seen a brother love his brother so much. :) Anxious to see how big Evan really is next month at his nine month appt, but until then we will be continuing to try sippy cup (which he takes) and finger foods (which he likes when i feed them to him:) Other than Eating and Napping we have been to the zoo a couple times the past month, and to numerous parks to play. Trying to enjoy every last bit of this summer, so far I think we are doing good, living every moment to the fullest! Wish it could last forever!
