8 Months- We are on the MOVE!

I can not believe my baby is 8 months old. This month has been SO FUN. Lots of milestones and funny moments. Normal I get lots of good pictures of Austin in his Picky Sticky(numbers on his shirt) but this month, he wanted the camera or the toy I was using to get him to laugh. So enjoy my little man on the move. As you can clearly see in these pictures:)
Whatcha got mom?
He looks unhappy because I am making him sit still:)
Mom I really want to get down and play, can you hurry up PLEASE
Hey you have my toy, I want it!
Hi Friend
Ok one smile!
See I am 8 months old!
Photo shoot over-- time to pull the books off the bookshelves
Action shot
If I get on my knees I can spin the wheel faster!
What's Austin Up to Theses Days:
Austin weighs: 20.5 lbs and is 29 inches long
Austin wears size 6-9 months clothes, but we are moving into 12 months
Austin wears size 3 diapers- I was so sad to say goodbye to Swaddlers-we found that Baby Dry keeps him dry all night long.
Austin wears size 3 or 4 in shoes but usually he goes barefoot- it is easier to crawl and move around with no shoes
Austin sleep ALL NIGHT LONG from 7:30pm to 7:00am
Austin takes a morning nap at 9:00am and an afternoon nap at 3:00pm (they last from 45 mins to 2 hours)
Austin drinks 4 6oz bottles (7, 11, 3, and bedtime)
Austin eats 3 square meals a day- fruit and cereal for breakfast, fruit and cereal or yogurt for lunch and chicken and veggies for dinner.
Austin tried squash(this is the only thing he has NOT LIKED), blueberries, mangoes, chicken and veggies, yogurt (banana, strawberry, blueberry, peach and pear), biter biscuits, yogurt melts, veggie puffs, and avocado (not sure he loves this one)
Austin drinks 4 oz of half apple juice half water with dinner
Austin loves to drink out of my water bottle- or anyone else who has one
Austin loves keys, real or fake
Austin LOVES his WALKER
Austin LOVES the pool- he is a little water bug
Austin LOVES his routine
Austin has 2 teeth on the bottom they came through on July 21st--We had one rough night waking up every 45 minutes crying, we thought it was an ear infection so we took him in for his FIRST sick visit- ONLY to find out he was PERFECT he was JUST TEETHING. 5 days later the teeth arrived in twos.
Austin Learned to crawl on July 13th
Austin loves tearing up paper and magazines
Austin loves cords
Austin LOVES cell phones, remotes and laptops
He is saying DA DA DA DA
Nana taught him to say uh-oh-- it is so cute
Now if I can get him to say Momma
He is trying to pull up and loves for you to hold his hands and let him walk.
Everyone says he will walk early- we will see...
This has been such an awesome month- I am so glad I am home with him everyday. He is on the move from the minute he finishes his morning bottle until he naps then it begins again.
It is hard to believe that in 4 short months I will have a one year old.
He is looking more like a toddler and less like a baby:(
Stay tuned for Austin's next adventure.
I have the camera ready at all times.
