8 months old

On Wednesday Henry turned eight months old. Woohoo! My little baby is growing up so fast! In this past month Henry graduated to the big tub, and LOVES it. Bath time is such a treat, and I'm pretty sure it's one of his favorite places. Henry has also learned "the pincer grip", so he can grab his little Puffs in between his thumb and pointer finger and stuff them in his mouth all by himself. It's pretty cute.

He also began crawling. Unfortunately he is still a HUGE barfer, which is kind of problematic in the crawling aspect, because he will no longer stay on a blanket that we plop him down on... Which results in barfy carpet. So we like to keep him in the kitchen area a lot, since its not carpeted. Hopefully he will grow out of the puking stage sooner than later, or we might not have a clean spot of carpet left! He's also obsessed with cords, the trash can, the the fireplace...so basically anything he should stay away from.

In the last month he also got to meet his Uncle BJ, and now they are best friends forever. The last time BJ was in town was when I was still pregnant, so it was great that Henry could finally see his uncle and have such fun times playing with him. We also took family pictures while BJ was here, and of course Henry was adorable in all of them.

Henry is still in love with Jay-Z, who still doesn't really love him back. Jay-Z will stay still and eyeball Henry until he gets a little too close, and then he bolts. But every time Henry sees the cat he starts beaming and/or laughing. Hopefully some day they will become buddies! 

adorable cousins!!!

king of the castle with his buddy BJ

this is pure love. too bad its unrequited..
Also this past week Henry has started exploring the world above crawling level. He hasn't started pulling himself up yet fully, but he will kind of sit up on his knees and reach for higher levels. Ahhhh! Let's hope he sticks to the ground for at least a little while longer, I feel like he's growing up too fast! ;)
