Rex Allen,
You are no longer my tiny baby. You are a big handsome boy now! Next week you will be 9 months old. This first year is flying by!
You can sit up now, but only if we sit you up. You haven't figured out how to go from laying to sitting yet. But you can go from sitting to laying without just tipping over. :) You are still army crawling, and it's the funniest thing I have ever seen. You mainly use one arm and one leg....it surprises everyone that you don't just crawl in circles! But when you are determined to get somewhere you can get along pretty quick. You also have learned how to pull up from sitting to standing. I haven't seen you do it yet. But Granny saw you do it. You eat your babyfood pretty good, when you feel like it. You want to eat food off of my plate, but you haven't really figured out how to do it yet. You sit up in the shopping cart and the highchair at restaraunts, and you think it's the coolest thing.
You love to play with your cousin Mattie. You want to touch her face all the time though, and she really doesn't like that.
Right now you have pneumonia. :( You had a snotty nose and a little cough for a while, but Sunday when you woke up I knew you were super sick. So we took you to urgent care. They gave you a breathing treatment while you were there. Of course we took pictures and posted them to facebook. You did it just like a big boy. You don't need the mask. Mommy just holds the machine close to your face and you just breathe in the steam. Sunday was so sad though. You barely smiled all day.
You have that same sunshine smile that Lexi had when she was a baby. And you are always smiling! Everyone always comments on how happy you are.
You haven't mastered sleeping through the night yet. Some nights you do, but some nights you wake up to eat. Mommy isn't worried about it yet. Once you turn one then we will start sleep training you.
I love you more than life my little man!
Love,
Mommy
