Today’s my birthday! Despite being a Monday (and a work day) it’s still shaping up to be a great one. I plan on hanging out with this little guy and perhaps sneaking in a bit of sewing!
And speaking of milestones, Max hit 8 months last week. I still can’t believe how quickly these months are flying by!
He’s gotten so chatty lately – I know they’re not real words yet, but I like to pretend he’s working on saying mama, though I think perhaps it’s mum mum (as in one of his favorite baby snacks). With the way this one eats, I’m quite certain one of his first words will be food related! (oh, and he now finally has his first tooth!)
While we were in Florida, my mom helped him figure out how to pull himself up at the coffee table, and now his favorite game is standing at the table and clearing it. I think we have a bit more baby proofing to do now!
As always, we can’t wait to see what the next couple months will bring!
