I'm 8 Months Old!

Can you believe it! I've made it to 8 months and my parent's haven't done anything to completely mess me up yet! Yay! I can say, however, that I'm really starting to push their buttons. See, the world is just so exciting! I mean...it's so exciting that if I go to sleep, I'm afraid I'm going to miss something. The solution is obvious...don't sleep! The only problem...if I don't sleep, I turn into a total crank pot and then no one likes me. Oh...the trials and tribulations of an 8 month old.

Let's see...what's changed since I turned 7 months...

• I'm a crawling machine! No more of that inch worm stuff...this is real man crawling! Yay!
• Not only am I a crawler...I'm a puller too! What's a puller? A puller is someone who pulls things of course! What am I pulling? Myself...up to a stand!
• I'm munching on more solids...and lately...I've been getting some actual food! Little bite size pieces of banana, baked pear, and some other stuff. One time, I even got a sweet potato fry and some turkey! Yum!
• Speaking of munching...I've got 3 teeth popping in! Two on the bottom (in the middle) one one on top...way off to one side. Don't ask why I'm not symmetric. I have no clue what my teeth are doing.
• I'm back in my swim class, which is really fun now that I'm older!
• I decided to become an artist! I even sold my first piece. Yes, it was sold to daddy...but it was still sold for a whopping $10! Guess that explains my left-handedness.
• I'm sure I'm bigger...but I don't know how much. With all of the pigging out I did in Maui, plus Thanksgiving coming up and Christmas after that...I'm sure I weigh as much as a whale! I'm staying away from the scale for a bit.

Man...time sure if flying by fast! The next thing you know...I'll be driving! I just hope I don't have to drive that toaster that daddy drives.
