Once again, another month has flown by! I think that it just keeps going faster and faster. August turned 8 months old on the 14th. I know that I have said this many times before but it is so amazing to watch him grow and learn. It seems like they develop so quickly that if you blink then you will miss the amazing transformation of a baby. What we have noticed this month is that August learns so quickly. We have several toys that you have to push a button to make the song start. We show him where the button is once and he sits there and pushes it over and over again. Of course, this becomes very annoying to mom and dad :) But...whatever makes baby happy....right??? :) We have gone camping several times this month. August has done great on every camping trip. He loves being outdoors and LOVES to watch the dirtbikes and four-wheelers and campfire. He loves being on the four wheeler and going for rides. We put him in the Baby Bijorn and he just talks the whole time we are riding. The last camping trip that we went on was super cold and rainy so he didn't get to go on a ride that time. August got three teeth in two weeks! He has his bottom two and then a top side tooth. I was surprised about the top tooth. We thought that he would get the front tooth first but I guess he didn't read the instruction book on that one. He looks pretty funny with a side tooth but oh well, it adds character. He did really well through his tooth cutting experience. A couple of times he was fussy but for the most part he was pretty good. The other thing that we are working on is crawling. He is soooo close. He gets up on his hands and knees and rocks and rocks. He actually rocks so hard that he scoots along. He can also cover alot of square feet by rolling. Even though he's not crawling yet we went ahead and put the gate up at the stairs because he is so fast when he rolls. We are having a blast here.
Daddy was fixing the heater on the fireplace and August was helping!
August LOVES to smile for the camera. You put the camera up and he just starts "cheeseing". It is hilarious! Then he likes to look at the picture after you take it.
Notice the cold rain outside the window. We spent a lot of time in the camper for this camping trip. We thought that we would wake up to snow but it didn't happen. The leaves are starting to change colors though. Very beautiful!

If you look real close you can see all three of my teeth!
I LOVE hats. Especially daddy's hat.
AWWWW....one of my favorite pictures.
Another one of my favorites. We had to snuggle to stay warm when we were outside camping.

Say CHEESE!
This pram is a 6 month and WAY to tight for August. It was pretty funny to try to get him into it. But...it served its purpose and kept him warm. I will have to get him a bigger one for this winter. This was the last time for this one.
Showing how he can get up on all fours and rock back and forth. He thinks that it is pretty cool!
See my chompers?
Sweet smile
I was going through some of August clothes and had them all in neat piles, went to do something and came back to find August in the middle of them, my piles demolished. This is when I realized that our little one is on the move! Nothing is safe anymore!
