8 Months!

Jack is 8 months old!  (well... 8 1/2 months by now!)



Jack babbles a lot.  Mamamama, dadadada, lalalala, gagagaga.  He doesn't know what he's saying, but sometimes he repeats "Mama" or "Dada" after us and we love it.  He squeals when he gets really excited and flaps his arm like a bird taking off.  We love his smile!  Sometimes he'll wave at us when we wave at him... not sure if he's doing that on purpose or not but it's still fun.  He's not crawling yet, but can roll super fast across the room.  He can get on all fours and rock back and forth.  His fine motor skills are really good.  He likes to use his first 2 fingers to pick at our buttons and zippers on our clothes.  EVERYTHING must go right into the mouth!  No teeth yet, but we keep saying "must be any day now" when he gets fussy for no obvious reason and drools a lot.  He loves chewing on these iced teething rings and letting the drool flow.  He's wearing 12 month or 12-18 month clothes, depending on the brand.  He's eating cereal and lots of jarred baby foods.  He typically sleeps 7:30 or 8pm to 6 or 7 am (sometimes it's 4:30 or 5 am... which I blame on teething!)  :)
