Whose Bed is That?

There are lots of beds around the house.  Me and Paul have a hard time keeping track of whose bed is whose...

FYI - I wasn't actually asleep - I was just resting my head in the middle of playing!

Yum! Yum!

About the time I moved to my new daycare class, Mom and Dad started sending solid food with me to school to see if I liked it better there.  I definitely do!  I haven't tried peas again yet, but I do like apples, peaches, squash, sweet potatoes, pears, mixed veggies, carrots and plums!  Mom blends up mangoes for me and I love those!

I even like puffs and chopped up bananas, but someone else has to put them in my mouth for me.  

This weekend Mom got me some cookies and they are big enough for me to pick up and feed myself.  I don't always hit my mouth but I get close enough!

Babyproofing!

Apparently Mom and Dad weren't too keen on me putting bite marks on the nicest piece of furniture in the house...  At least the crib bumpers get another use!

Me and Paul!

Here's some video of the arrangement Paul and I have.  I get to pet him and he gets to lick me!  Recently I discovered Paul's tail.  And while Paul won't let me play with it, it makes me laugh when it hits me in the face!

Mom wanted me to add that I was on my way to getting a bath right after she took this video...

Chompers!

I've got teeth!  Well, almost...  But they are big enough to make Mom yell when I bite down on her finger and to make marks on my crib when I try to bite it!  And now in addition to washing my face in the morning and at night, I have to brush my teeth!

Can you see them??

My Grandparents!

Since all of my grandparents were on vacation last Sunday and enjoying themselves (as they should be), I didn't give a shout out to them for Grandparents Day!  But that doesn't mean that I wasn't thinking about them!  

I'm a very lucky boy to have four grandparents that love me so much!  Here's some of my favorite pictures with them...

Cruising!

I wanted to show off my latest skill in some videos- cruising!  I'm getting pretty good and quick!  Any bets on when I will actually be walking?  By request of Mom, make sure all bets are at least in double digit months!

I can even cruise/walk using something that isn't stationary!  Over the weekend Mom and I went to an indoor play park with Oliver and his mom.  I was all about anything that I could hold on to and push!

Blair Witch!

I'm thinking about trying out for a role in the next Blair Witch movie!  Think I'll get a part??

Luckily for Mom and Dad, I was trying my acting skills in the morning and not in the middle of the night!

Standing Everywhere!

These days, if I'm not crawling somewhere, I'm standing!  I have no problem pulling myself up and can even get back to the ground myself.  I can also cruise around things - my favorite places to cruise are the ottoman and Mom and Dad's bathtub.

I like to stand and look out the windows...

I like to stand and hope someone gets me out of baby jail...

I like to stand at the ottoman and play with my toys...

I like to stand and play with my Sesame Street toy...

I like to stand and play with Paul...

I like to stand on top of my toy at Grandma and Grandpas...

I like to stand next to Paul at his window seat...

Here's how I get back down - very carefully and then plop to the ground!

Clemson Campaign!

Last week at daycare, I went on a Clemson campaign to teach some of my fellow classmates about the best college football team there is!  I wore one of my Clemson shirts each day of the week.  I think I got a few extra people cheering for Clemson!

This was the last time for me wearing just about all of these shirts - you can tell in a few I was about to bust out!  Hopefully Mom and Dad picked up some new Clemson clothes for me over the weekend!

Monday

Tuesday - I was looking a little tired here...

Wednesday - I thought I would have some fun with my cheesy grin!

Thursday - Mom caught me talking to one of the pretty girls in my class...

Friday - looking sharp in my jersey onesie!

On Saturday Mom and Dad broke the news to me that I couldn't go to the big game.  So disappointed...but then I found out that I was spending the weekend with Grandma and Grandpa Young.  I'm the cutest little tiger around!

Here was what I missed at the big game...hopefully I'll get to see it in person next month!  Mom and Dad looked like they were missing me a lot, don't they?

Eight Months Old!

I turned 8 months old last week!  It's been a big month with me learning to crawl, cruise and climb stairs!  First tooth didn't make the board this month, but it will next month.  I've got one coming!  It's razor sharp - be careful putting your fingers in my mouth!

Picture time has turned into play time for me these days.  It's time to crawl around on the couch and to take this funny, sticky think off my shirt and try to eat it!

I've also discovered a new way to smile.  Mom and Dad call it my "cheesy" grin.  Not sure what that means but I know for sure it makes them laugh when I do it!
