Fun new Toy!
Caleb let us barrow one of his walkers and Cole LOVES it! We aren't ready to push it on our feet yet but like to push it on our knees and practice pulling up on it. It plays fun music too!! Today I caught him doing a little dancing while playing with it. Silly boy!!

Video
Here is Cole standing in the living room watching Chuggington the other afternoon. He of course gets distracted when he sees me with the video camera :).
8 Months Old
Cole turned 8 Months Old last week while we were in Nashville visiting my parents and Graham!
He is in full crawling motion, up on all fours moving all around the house; he can find me anywhere in the house. He is also pulling up on EVERYTHING and starting to cruise on the furniture. Cole really likes the electronic equipment in the family room (cable box, receiver, DVD player, surround sound speakers) he pulls right up on the TV stand and starts going to town pushing buttons and turning knobs! OMG...I am constantly pulling him back and telling him "NO!" It's impossible not to laugh when I pull him away because he laughs and smiles, this little cutie might be related to Dennis the Menace ;).
The two bottom teeth have fully come in and the top two are working their way in right now I can see the white but can't feel them yet. These top teeth have been causing this poor little guy a lot of pain! We started introducing meat a few weeks back and he seems to be enjoying that, so far we have just had chicken and turkey. I'm looking forward to starting on some new fruits this month, melons, YUMMY!!
We have baby proofed the kitchen cabinets to keep the little stinker out. His crib is dropped to the lowest level and we had to move his video monitor and take down his mobile because he was pulling them both down! Needless to say he is getting into EVERYTHING!
It is getting more and more difficult to take his monthly pictures. Now that he is crawling it was hard to get him to stay in the chair for the photo session. The pictures below most definitely capture his personality at this age!

CrAzY Little Man
My sweet little boy is turning into a crazy little man! He is on the move and getting into EVERYTHING!! I turn around and he is right under my feet or getting into something while I'm not looking. Here are a few things I have caught him doing recently...

| Trying to decide what else to dump on the floor |

| Obsessed with the garbage can that is in his room, EVERY chance he gets he darts to it and dumps it over. His only interest is the garbage bag he could care less about the diapers! |

| Pulling apart the play mat and chewing on it is a favorite pass time. |

7 Months
Little man is 7 months old, he is growing and changing right before our eyes.
7 Month Update...
- He is still rolling all over the place and sitting unsupported with no worries.
- Has started to army crawl to get around.
- Cut one tooth and has another one that is trying to come up (bottom middle).
- Loves sitting in the highchair when we go out to restaurants and likes riding in the shopping cart!
- Chit Chats all the time, he says DaDa, GaGa, Geeee and makes tons of other silly sounds.
- Has fun playing with Avery and Caleb!
- Sleeping from 7:30 p.m.- 7:30 a.m. (sometimes he goes down earlier if he is worn out!)
- Drinking 4 bottles a day (26 ounces total/day) and eats solids 3 times a day
- Likes trying to pick up finger foods, LOVES puffs and is working on picking up little pieces of fruits and veggies.
- Weighs 23 pounds and is 30 inches long.
- Size 4 diapers and 12-18 month clothes.
He discovered my little monthly sign that I put on the pack of his chair and wanted to play with it/eat it. So it is a miracle that I got some good ones :).

Little Fish
Cole had his first Safe Start swimming lesson today at the YMCA, he did GREAT!! No crying and he seemed to feel very comfortable in the water. Today was about getting acquainted with the instructor and seeing if he could float. He was able to float and did it several times during the lesson. Looks like he might take after his mom and have a love for the water (lets hope so!!). We have 6 weeks of lessons so I will continue to share his progress.
