Whoa, he turned 6 months, 7 months and 8 months

Complete mommy fail! Our little man has turned not just 6 months old, but 7  months and now 8 months and I have yet to document his journey! Luckily, I did do his photos so we did document his growth!

These past few months have been full of excitement for our little guy and the family as a whole. Greyson continues to bless us with smiles day in and day out - he is just the happiest little man! And he is a busy one as well!

At 6 months he began his perpetual motion journey and was rolling all over the house. He just about mastered sitting up and started enjoying baby food. At his check up appointment he weighed in at 17 pounds and was 26 inches long - about 2 pounds in 2 months and about an inch in length. I think his weight would have jumped much higher, but at 6 months he caught a nasty stomach bug and couldn't keep much down. A nice stomach bug that he shared with many of us! But luckily he recovered and was fine.








 

At 7 months he had mastered sitting up and continued to roll all over the place! He also started his new trick of blowing bubbles, which was a super cute new trick. A big change for him was we moved daycare providers because he was just not happy and we didn't feel he was getting the attention he needed. His new daycare is an in-home where he is the only infant and he has definitely thrived! Not only did he finally get on a better sleeping schedule, but overall he seemed much happier. The only downside for his new daycare provider is he started teething pretty bad...with no teeth in sight! But overall, he and she seem to be enjoying each other and we are all much happier.

 



At 8 months the whirlwind of motion has hit and there is no slowing this boy down! It is incredible the difference in children and I'm not sure if it's boy vs. girl or just this particular kid, but he does not like to sit still! This month he is up on his knees and gearing up to crawl at any time...due to his rather large head he may just continue to army crawl around since it seems it's a big hard to keep that head up! This month he also picked up babbling and squealing as well as his love for standing up. The boy does not want to be sitting and enjoys all of his toys while standing. Up next will be "cruising" around the furniture. And because he is moving so much, the monthly sticker photos are getting harder and harder to capture!

It's truly incredible how fast this time is going. I suppose it's because life is just very busy, but I hope that it will slow down soon so we can enjoy our last little baby as long as possible.
