8 months.

Oliver is 8 months and then some. I never updated when he was 7 months, because that was at Christmas, Hawaii, crazy time etc. Fun things about my baby:

-He is so very close to crawling...getting up on all fours and rocking back and forth...very cute.
-He is very interested in big people food. Whenever we are eating, he fusses if he can't be a part of it, which is really quite cute. He is starting table foods which is really fun. He makes the craziest faces. He's had mashed potatoes, noodles, tomatoes, hashbrown casserole, blue cheese, beans, soup, bananas, every dessert you can imagine (thanks, Gigi) and lots more. He LOVES it.
-He is riding in his big boy carseat now and likes it better since he sits up high and can see out. I couldn't resist the "cowmooflage." It's just cute, ok?
-He is sleeping well at night, usually about 10.5 hours. It's not the 12-13 that some lucky ducks get, BUT we'll take it. Naps are improving, hopefully, and he's just started to resist being rocked to sleep...sadness for mommy. And, same as Daddy on this one: early to bed, early to rise.
-He likes to sit on the floor with his toys, but becomes easily bored with that. He loves being outside and is as eager as Mommy for Spring.
-He can say da-da and has said ma-ma a couple of times, but will not perform, so don't ask him.:)
-He has a red head's temper.
-He loves it when you whisper into his ear.
-He loves bath time. You should see the little fish.
-He gets a million kisses from mommy every day.

Such a cutie...with those lips! Wonder what it is about whispering in the ears. theEdge love that, too. Bath time is so much for fun for E at this age than it was for T$. I think he would stay in for an hour if I let him. He just splish splashes. How fun would it be to put them in together. HA!
