Happy EIGHT Months, Christopher!!

Christopher Henry, our sweet little pumpkin. You bring us so much joy with each passing day! Such a go with the flow guy, but you also make sure that you are NOT forgotten...you will yell your heart out to get our attention if you feel we're not giving enough.
A sweet, sweet cuddle bug...always snuggling and wanting to be held every chance you get, by any one of us!!..or anyone for that matter. You absolutely love being worn and eat up that closeness...staring into our eyes, melting into us like you're putty, and feeling our face with your tiny hands.
A show-stealing ham!!! You have just perfected the most amazing cheesy smile I have ever seen. Those two little teeth, a scrunched up nose, it's pretty great. I have a feeling you are going to have this very larger than life personality because you constantly have us roaring with laughter...and you know it, so you continue to whatever it was even more. Your new "tricks" include clapping when we say "YAY!" (I swear you say "YAY" too, but that would be crazy.haha), holding on to an object and standing unassisted, crawling in your own kind of way,  alllllmost pushing yourself from laying on your belly back up to a seated position, and plenty of babbling "dada", "mama", "gaga".
It's really hard to tell what your favorite food is because we haven't found anything you don't like yet. Even when I think things may have a little too much spice or tang, you still love it. You make these amazing noises while you eat....we'll work on manners later because right now they make us crack up laughing in the middle of dinner.
You had your first real sickness this past month. It was pretty sad and you were up a lot at night....so much that I even climbed into your crib with you a couple times. You're feeling much better now though!!

 

And because THIS is what a ham you are!!!!

 

Happy EIGHT Months, Christopher!!

Happy SEVEN months, Christopher

Only a month late....that's all. We did take your picture on time, however, it is very hard to sit down and document it. Not because I don't have time for you, Christopher....but because not sitting down at the computer is the only way I DO have time for you!! Every little bit of my free time is now occupied.haha. I had to get this picture on here right away though because we're getting ready to take your EIGHT month picture!! Which is going to be FUN.
Sorry...Mommy is always rushing and tired, and gets off the subject quickly.
So, anyway, HAPPY SEVEN months, a month ago, Christopher!! I take daily pictures of you, so trust me, your life is being very documented! I am saving all of these milestones, adventures, and cute tricks for the EIGHT month blog though, so here is the picture.

You turned SEVEN months in Cape May, NJ. There was a lot of fun to be had during the few days we were there....and you were adorable, as always! The awesome SEVEN out of flip flops was Pap's idea.
