Luke Danger turned 8 months old this past Saturday! I can not believe he is that old already. Where has the time gone.

He is now mobile and fast. He crawls, pulls up on anything, loves to hang onto things and jump like a mad man, and cruises a bit along furniture. If he wants something he will do all he can to get it. This mobility also brings along the need to be free. He is not a big fan of being strapped into things, and when strapped in his carseat, stroller, shopping cart he can only last so long before he wants to be free.

He is developing the little attitude lately, with his squeals of rage when I take away something he isn’t supposed to have, or don’t give him something he is after. He is also not easily distracted, yeah, that whole out of sight out of mind thing, doesn’t really apply to him. I will take something and put it around the corner or on top of something and he will always find his way to it.

He is eating more and more solid food, and we are starting to let him feed himself with softer bits of food. It’s messy! He talks A LOT, and we think he says mama, and mom, dada, and I swear I have heard him say hey at the proper times more than once, and also up! ;) But you know, he’s more advanced than normal! ;)

He is a big fan of anything that isn’t a toy, especially cords, strings, ribbons, or shiny things, and also plastic bag type things. Hmmm… all pretty DANGERous objects!  He puts all thing in his mouth, which I guess is normal. It has resulted in having 5 teeth. Although to be fair he just got his 5th one this morning. :)

He is a joy and a workout daily! I can’t imagine life without him and feel so very blessed that I am his mommy.

Thanks for stopping by!
