8 Months...

Mac is growing up fast, a little too fast. It seems like he is always doing new things everyday. His smile and laugh brighten our day and fill our hearts with more joy than imaginable. He has a very strong personality. He laughing all the time, and he gets so excited over seeing people and people paying attention to him. He LOVES looking in the mirror and I am pretty sure that he knows that it is him in the mirror and not another baby. He is always rolling around the floor and is getting to where he wants to be that way. He sits up so well and loves to play with his toys that way. He is learning to pick up food with his thumb and pointer finger and putting it to his mouth. He LOVES to be outside and his mood gets really sour if we have been stuck in the house too long. He really like books, and he even knows how to turn the pages. He has 5 teeth that are all the way in and his sixth just punched through. He will not sleep through the night for us anymore and wants to wake up to eat every 2 to 3 hours, he is making up for being so good as an infant. His hair is starting to actually come in and I think by the time he is one he will have enough to comb. His hair is definitely red and his eyes are big and blue. He can not sit still for anything, he always has to be moving and doing something. He does not do well at church and it makes it rough for us to sit through any class. He is wearing mostly 12 month clothes right now, and maybe a few things that are 9 month. He is a big boy! He gets so excited when Hubs gets home from work and turns his head to follow Hubs around the house where ever he goes, too cute! When you put your arms out to pick him up he does the same. When you are holding him he likes to lunge forward or out of your arms towards what ever is there. I can not believe that we are only 4 months away from him turning ONE, crazy! We love him and his sweet spirit!
