Today our baby is 8 months old! It is hard to believe it, but he's growing so fast and he's learning new skills every day. Here's a recap of his recent achievements:
He now has 3 teeth...two on the bottom and one on top
He is pulling himself up to standing and will stay up for quite a while
He is practicing for crawling, although he hasn't made that transition yet
He is saying "dada" and "mama"
He is waving at us--sometimes with both arms and sometimes with just one
He's eating all sorts of new foods including cheese, peaches, yogurt, bread, peas, carrots, green beans, avocadoes, apples, pears, sweet potatoes, rice cereal and oatmeal
He's sleeping through the night on most nights and has a fairly consistent bedtime
In general, I have to say this is such an amazing and fun time to be Nolan's mom. He's a joy to have in my life. While the first three months of his life were demanding and difficult, the last few months have been such a pleasure. He's a happy, laughing, giggling, curious baby. He loves snuggling and giving his mama hugs. Ah, I am a lucky woman!

So Proud to be Standing
