Charlie Eight Months!!

My BABY is growing up SOOO quick!  I sat in his room as he was sleeping the other night just looking at him in amazement thinking how big he has grown!  He is a BIG boy!  During his 8th month he has mastered the army crawl.  He pulls with one arm and pushes with the opposite leg.  He has it down to an artform and makes his way around the house with no problem.   He seems to be following in his brother's footsteps and especially loves to chase a ball around the floor.  He is babbling a lot!  He has SIX teeth already.  We are struggling a bit with getting him to eat anything 'solid', but day by day he is getting better. He does love his liquid and will chug a bottle faster than you can say the word.   He started clapping more and more and has perfected raspberries with his tongue.   He HATES loud noises and if we happen to be sharply speaking to his brother he will often start crying too.   He is quite fond of pulling Lola's tail and playing with her collar.  He has turned into a fabulous sleeper!  Most nights he is down for 10-12 hours without a peep.  When he is well rested and fed he is a SUPER happy baby.  His eight month photo shoot captures his adorable smile and delight with the world.    In my opinion he couldn't be ANY cuter!
