Elias is celebrating 8 months already! It seems like he was just born yesterday...yet like he has been part of our family forever! Elias has been very stuck on mom lately.
He is so close to crawling. He leans forward from sitting and stays on his hands and knees for awhile, rocking back and forth. Eventually he ends up on his tummy and goes in circles until he gets what he wants.
Here he is in his "farmer" attire.
And his expressions...they are so funny. He has so many new faces lately....he puts his lips out and his eyebrows down....or he grunts while making a totally hilarious, unexplainable face. He kid is a hoot! He seems to always wear a smile or be laughing! Even while he is crying (sometimes)!
He loves food! He eats basically anything we give him...but his favorites are sweet potatoes and pears.
He really enjoys watching his brother play...especially when Corbin plays "peek-boo" with him. He likes to get his hands on anything and everything. Corbin will give him one of "his" toys so he can get back the toy Elias has or he will just rip it from his little fingers. He also enjoys playing with mommy's jewelry...which isn't really worth wearing anymore...and hair.
He makes lots of noise, but no real words yet. Sometimes he will say "ma ma ma ma" or "da da da da".
He has started pulling himself up on furniture...which is accompanied by bumps on his head from losing his grip!
He doesn't like to be left alone in a room, and makes sure we know it!
And he still doesn't sleep through the night! (So, neither do mom or dad.)
We love our little snuggle bug lots and lots though! We thank God for him and the joy he brings to our family!

I love the "farmer" look! I can't believe he is already 8 months old! I hope I get to see him soon!
