Evan is 8 Months Old!

Not only was yesterday the start of the new year, but it also meant that Evan was another month older! He is really starting to change from that baby look to a more toddler look. Having some teeth helps, he has two as of right now! Plus his hair is growing in a bit more.



We have also started giving him so real foods. He has had some scrambled eggs, ramen noodles, mac & cheese, meatballs, ice cream, banana cream pie and yesterday he even got to have some homemade cheesecake that his Great Aunt Vicki made. We're pretty certain that was his absolute favorite thing ever and MIL couldn't stuff it in his face fast enough! We'll probably start letting him try more and more "real" food, since he seems very interested in what we are eating.

In other milestones, he is on the move using the army crawl. He looks more like an inch worm since he tries to get up on his knees but can't stay there! He is also sitting up on his own, he's been using the side of his crib as leverage, but he's getting better at doing it without the leverage! It was so cute to find him sitting up after I went in to get him from his nap. Then a few days later, I went into nurse him in the night and when I walked into his room, he was STANDING UP! I figured it was just a fluke but when I went in the second time that night and he was doing it again, it was time to lower the crib. I didn't want to take any chances!

Now if we can just work on his sleeping skills! Ha!
