Monte Turns 8 Months

 It's hard to accept that my little Mr. Smiley is growing up so fast.  I remember so well the night he was born, having a hard time believing I was actually in labor on my due date, the suspense of what the gender would be.  And then the joy of another baby boy!

So far, he has been the most energetic of my three.  Enthusiastic, energetic, and yes, sometimes all out angry.  I think he gets frustrated with sitting in one spot on the floor.  He wants to move, explore.  It won't be long before he figures out how to fix that problem. 
 These days he sits up like a champion, jabbers, sings, screeches, and eats baby food like it's going out of style.  He has two teeth on the bottom and is pushing 4 more in on the top.  He used to sleep through the night, but not so much lately.

You may have noticed he's sitting on a little potty chair.  These are the neatest little seats a friend told me about and you can order them here on Amazon. They are a lot of fun and it's amazing how babies know what to do when you set them on it. 

And that's about it for my sweet little man, Monte.

Wait . . . is he actually using a potty chair instead of a diaper at *8 months*??? Seriously?

Melinda said...

Jessie, yes, order it, we could be twins ;o) cept you're much cuter!

Shirley, he uses both. I don't attempt to catch everything with the potty chair. I just use it several times throughout the day to get him used to it.
