8 MONTHS!

Boston is 8 Months young today!

He babbles all the time. He only knows ba ba ba ba....., but Tim and I are working on teaching him a couple more words ;).

He is pulling up on as many things as he can. I think he has gotten taller, because he seems to reach more than he could before. He is one determined baby boy! He isn't taking steps yet, but he has moved from one thing to the next while standing. It won't be long...but I am definitely not rushing it!

Watching Molly...one of his favorite things!

We are gradually raising the blinds higher and higher...

We are still doing about 2 solids a day, fruit with rice cereal in the morning and veggies with rice cereal in the evening. We have tried giving him Puffs (a 1st finger food cereal that melts in his mouth), but he is not very interested.

We have also tried apple juice in a sippy cup. He doesn't quite understand it yet, but we are working on it.

He puts his mouth on anything he can. He likes to chew on things, but he doesn't seem to be teething yet.

Thank you to Daddy for Sophie III!

He is still a very happy boy. He isn't quite sleeping through the night yet. He wakes up between 3 and 5, sometimes wanting to play. It's not always easy getting him back to sleep, but we are patiently working on it.

Boston is a mess and we are loving every second of watching him grow!

Cutie Patutie!

Boston's 1st Easter

We had a wonderful Easter filled with lots of family time!

Friday evening, we got to meet baby Eli for the first time. He is so tiny and adorable. He is bigger than Boston was when he was born and I cannot remember Boston ever being that small!

Proud Daddies!

When we got to Ami and PaPierre's, they were ready to play. Boston was sleepy, but was so excited that he got a second wind. Ami had a new "toy box" just for him!

Saturday, we had a delicious lunch with Lolly and Pop. Afterwards, we went to their house to enjoy the beautiful weather. Boston played in a baby pool for the 1st time and had lots of fun!

Aunt Bug has really missed little B and he has missed her too!

Afterwards, we went back to Scott, Loren, & Eli's house for Easter with the Grace's.

GiGi helped Boston up so he could ride Eli's horsey. He loved it!

He had lots of fun with Pappy. He especially liked his beard.

Sunday morning, we went to church for a nice Easter service. Then, we headed back to Ami and PaPierre's for Easter lunch and more family time.

B had his first Easter egg hunt! He crawled to the eggs, but the grass was his favorite part. We quickly took it away, because he wanted to eat it.

A special thanks to all of B's wonderful grandparents for such a nice Easter this year. The "Easter bunny" was very generous to our sweet boy.

We hope you enjoyed your Easter as much as we did!
