8 months

Time really does fly when you are having fun or tired either one, really! My baby boy is growing so fast. He is actually 9 months old as of the 1st, but you know me I'm just now getting to write about his 8th month.

He has grown and changed so much. In his 8th month of life he switched from his infant car seat to, well a big boy car seat (before any of you grandparents start flipping out on me, it is still turned around backwards) a 3 in 1 if you will! Jolee loves that brother is now in her old car seat.

Little man has 5 teeth altogether. He got his 2 bottom teeth first, then got one on his top left side (what we call his fang) and then after sporting that around awhile he finally got his 2 front teeth within days of each other.

He is enjoying being able to sit up. Yes, I said sit up. He is big stuff now, he gets to ride in the front of the grocery cart, he gets to sit and play with toys or bang spoons against pots and pans and the funnest thing, I think for him has been to ride in the wagon with his sister! He loved it!!

Jolee is also loving that he is getting more mobile and can do things with her, like ride in the wagon, swing, sit up and play with toys, he rolls all over the floor to get to where she is. Although she did tell me the other day, Mom he is not so little anymore is he? Mom I don't think I remember him being little.

Although, with his mobileness has come his vocalness. He makes all kind of noises and sounds these days. The other day, I was cooking and Jolee was watching TV and he was being loud. She said... Brennan, I can not hear my show and it seemed that he got louder. Again, she said... brother I can not hear my show. She was so serious and he seemed to already know how to agrivate her and all I could do was snicker and think to myself...I'm sure that is not the last time I will be hearing that.
He has also learned how to put puffs in his mouth!
He was introduced to a Christmas tree and by his in "Awe" reaction, I think he liked it! He just kinda stared at it and started breathing really hard, like he knew it was something special and ofcourse the lights I'm sure caught his attention.
This was the first time, little man sat up all by himself!!

And last but not least, he is now taking baths in the big bath tub and loving splashing and kicking like crazy. And yes, those are barbie dolls he is playing with in the tub...all we have are girl toys, but I do have boy toy's on his Christmas list.
It's hard to imagine what our life was like before Brennan. It's just so perfect and like we have always been a family of four!
Happy 8 months little man!
Love,
Mommy
