Today Owen turns 8 months old. It is so hard to believe that he is already this old. Each day has been so special and it is so exciting seeing him grow from a baby into this special little boy. He has gone through many changes over the past month. He has 2 baby teeth and a 3rd coming in. He is crawling--not all the time, but when he feels like it (sometimes he rolls the entire length of the room). He is standing and sitting up on his own, just today I was in the kitchen and he was in the family room and I turned and saw him using the couch to pull himself up to the standing position. He is saying da-da, but not directly to Daddy (I keep trying to teach him ma-ma but he is not catching on). He is eating like a little monster! He likes anything we give him except for non-homemade peaches, he would just eat to the cows came home if we let him! We are enjoying every day with him and seeing him grow, we definitely will not want to go back to school in August because we have had so much fun with him at home :( We look forward to him beginning to walk on his own and talk in the upcoming months.
Owen woke up this morning and I made him a special homemade breakfast--banana and melon puree with his oatmeal cereal.
After breakfast, Owen went into his pack and play and played like crazy. He kept trying to stand up and pushed against the side.
Owen is standing in his crib on his own.
Check out the ornery look on his face!
Owen LOVES his toys, especially his Nittany Lion!
