8 Months Old!

Two weeks and two days ago Alex turned 8 months old (aka November 14th).

Our little chunky monkey is...or was... 19lbs 11oz. I have no idea how tall he is but he definitely looks longer. He has a lot more hair coming through, unfortunately (or fortunately?) it seems to be taking shape of a faux hawk.

I should probably ditch the blanket idea now. He's too huge for it.


Alex and I went to our monthly Mommy and Me group. This time it was at Amber/Jake's house.

So many babies.


Here's Alex and Jake hanging out on the couch. Notice the teethers that each one is holding.



At some point, they decided to trade.




Sharing is caring.



There were a few days where Alex discovered some new muscles around his forehead. He kept making this weird squinty face which was terrifying. We started calling him vampire baby. Looks like it was just a phase since I haven't seen him do it in awhile.



Baby gurning competition?



Lots more to post about: Alex's cousins visit from Chicago, Thanksgiving, Daddy turns 31, Alex sits up on his own etc. Hopefully I'll get around to it sooner than later.

  1. I love the pictures of Jake and Alex (although Jake looks like a little ragamuffin with his disheveled hair and food on his face) :-)
