8 months already!!!!

Can you believe Benjamin turned
8 months last week!!! I decided to do a list of likes and dislikes for my little update on Bubba.

smiling

saying dada (sorry it is a little long. He wasn't too into talking right now. He made just about every sound that he can in this one video. You aren't required to watch the whole thing unless you are a grandma.)

playing with things he shouldn't (the phone, the remote, paper, plastic, anything that was not bought with the intention of becoming a toy.) Here are some of his favorites-- water bottle, empty vitamin bottle, trash can (when Mommy isn't looking) and the only thing worth crossing the room for- the TV remote.




biting with his 4 big chompers. (He will bite anything that he can put in his mouth. Cheerios, crackers, fingers, shoulders, and boobs are his favorite. But he will take a nose if you let him.)

using his pincher fingers he loves to eat Puffs and Cheerios

eating fruit (yummy!!!!)

swimming and hanging out at the pool during swimming lessons

touching foreheads (is this a normal baby thing or just a Benjamin thing?)


Dislikes

pooping (with all the solids we have been feeding him we needed to add prune juice to his diet, poor little guy)

having his nose wiped (When he sees you coming at him with something to wipe his nose he puts his hands up and smears the boogies all over his face. Gross!)

trying new foods (this is the face we get on most first bites. It gets better the more bites you give him.)

Other than that not too much else that he doesn't like in this world of ours. He is a pretty happy little guy. We love him and his cute little personality that comes with him!

I honestly can't believe he's already 8 months. Also, I can't believe how often I see him in clothes my kiddos have. He's a cutie.

Love this post. He's getting so big. The pictures with his likes and dislikes are too cute. These days are precious.

It's amazing how much they change in the first year. He's such a cutie pie! I love chubby babies. :o)

Too fun violet! It's amazing how much each month changes...he's almost a toddler. Question for you...at what age do you recommend swim lessons? Are public pools pretty safe for 3 month babies? Thanks!
