Gorgeous boy!

Daddy took some more photos of the wee man this weekend.  He’s now 8.5 months old and looks like this:

He can now pull himself up to standing using the coffee table, my leg, the sofa, or anything else he can get his hands on!  He can also move across the floor at some speed, although its not crawling as such, its more a caterpillar break dance move!  He can also move to a sitting position from lying on the floor - he can even do this in the bath - and loves to sit up and splash really hard so he soaks Mummy!  He loves smiling and clapping his hands and is just getting the hang of waving, although I think that might take a bit longer - sometimes we just get a blank stare.  He sleeps 7pm-7.30am most nights as well as 2 hour long naps during the day.  He eats just about anything we put in front of him, although he still doesn’t like big lumps of things, we gave him a big bit of apple yesterday and he chewed on it for quite a while before it was thrown to the floor in frustration.  There’s only so much you can do with just 2 teeth!  Oh and I weighed him today and he now weighs 1.5 stone.  He’s been in 9-12 month clothes for ages now so is definately “a big boy”!

Anyway, that’s our perfect little boy - if only he could say “mama” as well or as often as we hear “dada”!  ;-)  Oh, and if you use Facebook how about going here - http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=4804404&l=b4ac35c9bf&id=577161734 and clicking Like on Kidstart and this photo?  Ta muchly!
