Happy 8 month birthday


Nic is eight months old today! It is amazing how time flies! It seels like he is getting ready to start cruising soon - hopefully crawling first! He wants to move and join in on the action! He has been teething up a storm. His bottom two middle teeth are through - the right more than the left - and he is chewing on anything he can get his hands on - and drooling everywhere!

His personality is starting to shine through! He smiles at people all the time and is curious about everything. He will grab anything he can reach and put in in his mouth. He wants to be close to his brother and touch anything he is playing with. Jac likes to play close to Nic - close enough that Nic can grab what he is playing with - even though Nic can't move and he could choose to play anywhere - and still be close to me - he plays within Nicie's grasp. Jac doesn't get upset when Nic takes what he is playing with - he just grabs it back - and will take whatever Nic is playing with to begin with also. Hmmm - we are going to have to work on that one! At this point Nic doesn't complain about having his play thing taken though.

He is starting to twist and reach which Jac's OT says he needs to do to be able to get to sitting on his own! Sometimes when he has twisted and reached to get something he gets "stuck" and unhappy in the position and can't figure out how to get back up and I have to help him back into a full upright sitting position.

He loves to talk! Man he has a lot to say! Joseph has commented that Nic needs to learn that there is an "inside" voice because his only voice seems to be an ear splitting "outside" voice.
