Eight Months!


Blaise is eight months old and he’s on the move!  He’s not crawling, per say, but he’s busy “scooting” around!  He pulls himself forward with his hands-dragging them across the floor. Drawers are one of his favorite destinations-pulling them in and out is so much fun! (I need to go buy some baby proof locks for them!) We feel bad when he works so hard to get somewhere and we have to remove the object from him (or him from the object!) i.e. the space heater, the plastic liner on his trashcan, shoes, or various cords.  If he’s not scooting around, he’s busy pulling up on things-the chairs in the kitchen, the stool, his exosaucer.   He also loves pushing the glider’s foot rest, pushing and climbing under his high chair (it has weels!) and climbing up on his jungle play mat.  I can’t imagine how much busier he will be in a few more months! We love his babbling, his mamas quickly joined his dadadas last month along with some nananas and other various baby lingo. He giggles at us all the time if we do something funny and especially things peek-a-boo (covering your face and saying “boo!”) is hilarious.  He's working on some teeth too-the bottom one has just popped through his gums! 



Having fun with the grocery bags!
Our sweet babe sporting his bear ears :) 
The rolling pin-a fun new toy!
Play time with grandma!

Fun times with daddy
Lovely 80 degree weather-we can't wait for more!
He loves the steering wheel!
Mmmmm peas (the smile's deceiving -he's actually not a big fan!) 
Hanging with some friends at the Zoo in the moby wrap!
Playing with Miss Elly and Cody
Look what I discovered! Oh boy!

David and Amanda,

Blaise is absolutely precious! I love his smile. We hope to see you again in the coming months.

oh my gosh - is Blaise playing with an abacus in that one picture with my dad? He's already a genius. HE IS ABSOLUTELY PRECIOUS! I couldn't resist sending that one picture of him with the little bear jacket to some of my Crash girls. They all love babysitting and little kids.

I'd love to come see you all soon, maybe next week. However I am on the verge of getting over a cold, so I want to make sure I am totally healthy before I'm around Blaise.
