8 Months

And here are the MILEStones (see what I did there?) for 8 months.

Speed crawler
4 huge teeth
Lots of giggles
Bald Bald Bald!
Much Improved naps. 1.5-3 hours at a time :)
Waking once per night
Eating solids. Grabbing puffs and putting them in his mouth.
Climbing up on everything and sometimes leaning on his hip so he can stand and hold a toy with both hands.
H can get himself down from standing too which make me happy that he's not standing up and crying in his bed because he can't get down.

As traumatizing as it is for me, the crawling has made Miles a lot happier He can crawl around the living room for a long time and be totally entertained while I get other things done.

He likes to follow me through the house. If I run upstairs for something he crawls to the stairs, I've only seen him go up one stair so far and I haven't left him there to see if he would go up anymore. We'll have to put up the baby gate soon I think.

Also, if he bonks his head on something he will crawl toward me for comfort, usually in his journey towards me, he forgets that he's hurt and starts playing with whatever he finds.

He is switching from his beat up old pack in play into his crib this week. That was his Christmas gift. No more lumpy hard mattress for him.

I like that he's more sturdy and Charlie can play with him but Charlie doesn't seem to like Miles' mobility as he is always encroaching in Charlie's business.

We roamed the Library to celebrate Miles turning 8 months (and to return our overdue books) He loved roaming free.
