10 months!

DSC_0258-2Our little man is growing like crazy and gaining new skills everyday. He has a hearty appetite and loves to eat whatever we are eating. He’s tried so many flavors of foods and we haven’t found anything he doesn’t like! He’s tried peas, avocado, carrots, bread, pancakes, corn, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, turkey, leeks & quinoa (in a pouch!), prunes, pears, apples, mango, banana, applesauce, greek yogurt, blueberry yogurt, hummus & pita, cheese – and so many more things. He loves to feed himself, and is happy to eat from a spoon as long as he can feed himself something too!

Every day he is free-standing more and more. He loves to push everything and walk as he goes. His first steps could be in our near future! And he loves to play new games like peek-a-boo, putting a ball or something “in” and “out”, clapping his hands, and waving goodbye. His personality is well-rounded; pleasant, happy, shy, sassy, and occasionally a bit of attitude (I’m not sure where that comes from!). DSC_0250-2 DSC_0241-2 DSC_0253-2 DSC_0254-2 DSC_0256-2 DSC_0257-2 DSC_0258-2 DSC_0260-2 DSC_0262-2 DSC_0266-2 DSC_0268-2 DSC_0269-2 DSC_0272-2 DSC_0275-2 DSC_0276-2 DSC_0277-2 DSC_0281-2 DSC_0288-2 DSC_0290-2 DSC_0291-2 DSC_0295-2 DSC_0298-2 DSC_0302-2 DSC_0304-2 DSC_0306-2 DSC_0313-2 DSC_0314-2 DSC_0315-2 DSC_0324-2 DSC_0327-2 DSC_0331-2 DSC_0332-2

 

8 months!

DSC_0437What a beautiful day we had for Finn’s 8 month birthday today! It was a beautiful day, sunny and 65, and we spent all afternoon at Cade’s Cove in Rocky Mountain National Park, TN. It is a driving loop about 10 miles long, but there are many places to get out and explore, go hiking, and look at buildings that date back to the 1800 and early 1900’s. How about this for a background for some photos!  We love you little man!DSC_0457 DSC_0477

7 months!

DSC_0630Today Griffin turned 7 months old! Look at our sweet little boy. His personality is growing with every day. He regularly pulls himself up to his feet, or his knees, and then gasps with an inward laugh. He is smiley, cuddly, curious, observant, and a wee bit stubborn at times! He no longer likes to lay very still while he is having his diaper changed or being dressed. And he doesn’t have a problem letting you know! We love you little man!
