8 Months

Sam just turned 8 months old. I can't believe how quickly the time flies! I think this stage is my favorite one yet. He's showing more affection these days, giving me lots of sloppy kisses and tight neck hugs, and showing off more of those sweet smiles and laughs. It's just the best.

He's also started "army crawling". It's so funny, and it wears me out just watching him. That does not look easy! His favorite thing right now is bath time. Since he's graduated to just the big tub, he has much more freedom to splash around. It's such a blast!




Last night we had a photo session at the park with our awesome photographer friend Mary Morrow, who also did his newborn session (see my blog header). If you're in the OKC area, you should definitely check her out. You can follow this link to her photography blog, where she's posted a couple of pics from our session last night. Is he the cutest?! And he has an ear infection right now, poor thing, so I was especially impressed with how well he did.

Also, Sam's new house is coming along! Here's a pic from yesterday. I doubt much will get done today, what with the monsoon rain, but we've been excited with the progress.

  5. Love the bath pics- he is just chillin' and looks so happy! I totally agree with you about this stage. Of course, all the stages are exciting and full of wonder. I was just telling Jas the other day- my favorite baby stage is between sitting up and full mobility- they are super fun, no need for discipline yet, they giggle & laugh & think you are the funnest person on the planet, and you aren't chasing them in parking lots yet (ha!).
