Parker is 8 Months Old

Sweet little Parks is all grown up!  Well not really but he is 8 months old today!  The little guys is just an amazing joy in our lives.  The entire family adores him and I believe that infectious smile has something to do with it.

Unofficially Parker is somewhere around 16-1/2lbs.  He has been feeling a bit under the weather the past week so his eating habits haven't been the greatest.  He seems to be turning around so hopefully he'll get good reviews at his 9 month appointment next month.  

As for all the developmental details... Parker is doing great.  He has mastered sitting and has been showing a strong interest in standing lately.  He hates being on his stomach (except for sleeping) so it doesn't look like crawling is happening soon.

He puts everything in his mouth and loves playing with all of Carter's toys.  He is drooling like a fool and definitely has some more teeth in store (18 for those counting!).

Parker is eating 3 meals a day, nursing/bottles 4-5 times a day plus some snacks.  He is showing more interest in table food and while he can't feed himself yet, he loves eating what ever mom/dad/Carter give him.

And he and his brother adore each other.  Carter doesn't like to be too far from Parker so he joined him, along with some friends, for his 8 month pictures.

Happy 8 months little guy.  8 is great and so are you!!!
