8 months old

Eight months old already! Time is going by so fast. Carter got his first tooth on December 6th. I finally held him down and got a picture of it for the records. He likes to hide it with his tongue. He likes to chew on everything and anything. He is really interested in eating now and watches your mouth very carefully when you are eating trying to figure the whole chewing action out. He is crawling on all fours now and is VERY fast. Especially when you are walking away from him and he is chasing after you or going after Dallas the dog. He likes to get into everything and as I type this he is playing with all the buttons on the stereo system. He recently learned how to pull himself to a standing position at the furniture so he practices his new skill all day. He is the youngest one out of the three boys to pull himself to a standing position. I predict he will be the earliest walker but only time will tell. He has the prettiest green eyes and the biggest smile. You can't help but smile back at him.

Carter 7 months

Seven months is so much fun! Carter is scooting all over the floor and getting up on his hands and knees making attempts to crawl on all fours. He says "dada" and "mama" and likes to make alot of noises. He is still very happy and smiles at everyone but now he sticks his tongue out when he smiles. He loves to eat carrots and still hates fruits. He makes a sour face when you feed him anything sweet. He loves Elmo and gets really excited when he sees his Elmo doll. He got his first cold and ear infection this month and his bottom teeth are on the verge of breaking through. He can sit on his own and still sleeps through the night. He loves being held and likes to rest his head on your shoulder and snuggle. He made a decision this month to resist the pacifier and my hopes of having one baby that took a pacifier are dashed. He is still a very pleasant little guy who always has a smile and brings joy to the lives of those who love him.
