8 Months Old








Is he really 8 months old!? Time is flying by. Now that I don't have school anymore, I promise to never wish my life away. Solomon and I are already enjoying our time together. Mrs.Linda has him in the morning so I can get some things done around the house, really I just go down to the gym and take a shower then hurry and get him back.
Sol is so busy. He wants to take your hands and walk around the house. When he plays on the floor he is constantly pulling himself up on his singing mirror/stage. He can sit up by himself from lying on the floor. He's scooting on his belly to things that we don't want him to get like our shoes and the dogs. We noticed last night that he is using the pincer grasp to pick up his food. Last night he had Salmon and peas. He has a very sophisticated palate. He likes mango and peaches purred with his cereal and yo baby yogurt (Thanks Ambre' for the idea) But, most of all he likes titty. Last night I knew that he was full when he woke up, so I decided I would just rock him back to sleep even though he wanted to nurse. Well, he showed me who was boss, he screamed until I thought he was going to pass out. Neall nor I could get him to calm down until I let him nurse. Boy are we going to have some trouble weaning him in a few months.
He peed on the potty!! I put him on his potty after he woke up the other morning and he peed on the potty, so I danced and sang. He enjoyed it, but had no idea what I was so happy about. I've had no success catching him again, but we'll keep trying. We just moved up a diaper size, 4, because he peed out 3 nights in a row, that's our own personal indicator.
