Where did my baby go?

Tomorrow my little man will be eight months old. I keep asking myself where did my baby boy go? This weekend Brian and I lowered his crib mattress. Just in time too, Max can now stand at the side of his crib all by himself! He hangs on for dear life, but he does it. He thinks it's fun to stand up. I guess he likes his new view of the world.


Now that the weather has gotten colder daddy was in charge of securing a winter coat. You can see Max modeling the three dollar purchase. It is really puffy, so he can't wear it in the car seat, but I'm sure it will come in handy at some point. For $3.00 I think it is pretty cute!


Max also has a new trick. He has discovered the army crawl. He uses one arm to pull himself forward. It takes a while for him to make much progress, but it is hilarious to watch. He wasn't too motivated to crawl by any of his toys, but the phone seemed to do the trick. I think he would probably crawl for the remote control too. He is all boy, through and through!
