8 Months

Yesterday this little guy had his 8 month birthday.  Crazy to think that he'll be 1 year in 4 months.  It goes so much faster with your second kiddo. 

Here are a few of his 8 month pics I took.  He cracks me up!  He is still such an easy baby.  He hardly ever cries (only when he is in the car at night-not sure if it's too close to bedtime or the dark), he is crawling/worming around, he is starting to try to pull up on stuff, he is wearing size 4 diapers, he weighs 22.5 pds, he goes to sleep around 7:30-8:00 and most of the time he will sleep till 5ish, he still has the 1 tooth on the bottom, he is drinking 6-7 oz and it seems to be every 3 hours (don't keep up with time anymore), he loves Landon, he eats some sort of fruit and cereal in the morning, he'll have veggies for lunch, dinner is a hit and miss (horrible mom here but do what I can), he snacks on yogurt melts, little puffs, and graham crackers, he isn't too crazy about the sippy cup or just the apple juice/water mixture inside, and he just got moved out of the infant car seat and into the big boy/rear facing seat.  WOWZER!!!  

 

Yesterday morning Lance left for his duck camp around 5 so the boys decided they'd get up early too.  I got them to lay in bed for a little bit but it didn't last long.

We had a pretty lazy day.  Landon has had a cough/cold going on and I think Bennett has gum problems because he seems to have drainage and just chewing/slobbering on everything.  We did get out for a sonic drink.  I thought we'd drive around for a bit but of course as soon as we start Landon informs me he has to go pee...ugh!  So we made it to get drinks but then went straight home.  Maybe another time. 

 

I have to share my new sweater/cardigan.  I love it!  I got it at Freckles Chic which if you haven't checked this boutique out yet you need to.  I always find such cute things there plus I enjoy visiting with Candace.  And she is working on her website so those not close to MH can go online and see all her items.  I might be in trouble...or Lance might be. :) 

 

Well I made it through conferences so now I just have to make it 3 weeks and then we are off a full week for Thanksgiving break.  I can't wait.  It makes me think about putting up my tree!  Which yesterday I finally started my Christmas shopping.  I now have the boys Christmas Eve gift ordered, I have them one gift coming, and I got my sisters kids finished.  Not bad but still lots to go!  Can't wait to shop, wrap, and give!  Love this time of year!

 

And here is a picture of big boy!  He was a bit pouty yesterday but momma always makes him laugh eventually.

 

 Can't wait to dress the boys up for Halloween.  I'll share pics Monday since we are going to trick-or-treating at the JH and then again on Wednesday for church.
