8 Months!


Wyatt is eight months old! As a parent I wrestle with the joys and sadnesses that come along with watching her little guy achieve new milestones in his little life. Like 2 days ago went to Target and he sat in the cart for the first time! I was so excited to see him with this 'first' but sad at the same time because my sweet little baby is slowly getting closer and closer to a toddler. It is a never ending cycle! Some of the highlight of Wyatt's this month are:
*finally sitting up--he'll still topple over, but he's getting the hang of it:)
*da-da-da is his favorite phrase to repeat over and over again
*screaming is also his favorite:)
*his new favorite toy is our cell phones or the remote...wonder if the cell company has a policy on slobbery phones?
*he is starting to get an attachment to a blankie at sleepy time...when we put him down we will throw it over him and he will grab it really tight and put it in his mouth! When we get him up it is usually under his head like a pillow:)
*he is still an easy going, laid back kind of guy...not much throws him or scares him
*he is still big into songs! I love to see his big smile light up when we start to sing him 'his' song each day (Each morning we sing to him "This is the day that the Lord has made", right now I think it is more of reminder to us to give the day to God, but hopefully when Wyatt is old enough to understand it can be the same reminder to him to live his day out to God and not for himself)
*he is no longer easily confined to a play mat...he's a little roly poly that goes all over the place!
*my little man will eat ANYTHING!!! There is not one thing this kid doesn't like to shovel in his mouth, whether it's food or not! Just praying that it lasts throughout his life time! It would make my job a whole lot easier:)
