8 Months Old!

Nathaniel turned 8 months on Sept. 27th. I am a week late! I always remember after my good friend Wendy posts her son's pictures. He is 3 weeks older than Nathaniel. So thank you Wendy for posting your pictures because they remind me to do mine!

29 inches long

20 lbs. according to my home scale

This is a picture of Nathaniel praying and praising God. Ha! I think it is too funny!

Things Nathaniel can do at 8 Months

- He still sleeps 12 hours at night 8:00- 8:00! Love this!

-Eats solids 3 times a day and bottles 4 times a day

- Crawls on hands and knees

- Pulls up to a standing position

-Says "ma" sounds, but I haven't heard him say "da" and makes all sorts of other babbles

- Runs- or I should say fast crawl to greet Lesh at the door when he comes home

- Prefers to be on the floor than in my arms

-Loves puffs and the little yogurt puffs

-LOVES his pacifier!!! This may cause me some problems later!

-Chases Checkers around the living to play with him

-He does So much more!

I praise God for the blessing of motherhood. I thank him for the joys and the challenges. What a sweet gift! Thank you Lord!
