8 months!

I know, I'm a day late.  Erik has his first cold, and he's so generously shared it with me, so I am doing this as I can. :)

Erik continues to grow like a weed!  He's in 12 month clothes for the most part because he's too long for everything else.

Erik got his first tooth!  I'm sure the other one, next to it, is not far behind.

Erik is very quick with his army crawl, and is well on his way to crawling: up on his knees and rocking, and sometimes taking a crawl or two forward before going back to the belly.

He loves his high chair and seems to still like squash the best of all the foods he has tried.

Erik sleeps pretty much through the night, from about 8pm-7am (give or take) every night.  Yay!

Erik is fascinates by everything.  He studies and manipulates things to figure them out.  It is incredible to watch.

This little boy continues to amaze me every day.  He has the sweetest, happiest disposition, even when sick and teething.  He is so curious and so smart already.  He's learning to mimic others, and he loves to sing.  Every single morning, I come in to find him singing to a stuffed animal.  It's precious!

Erik's 8 month picture is actually a family picture--and as soon as we have it, I'll post!
