8 Months Old?!?!

So, I've been a major slacker with these blog posts.  As the cliche goes, time is going by so fast.  It seems like as soon as I get ready to do a monthly update another month has gone by. Before that happens again, I'm determined to get something down on paper, err, screen.  Here we go...

In the last 4 months you've gone from an adorable little lump that sits in the corner of the couch to a little lump on the move!  You haven't crawled "properly" yet, but you're getting mighty fast at the army crawl.

You're getting more chatty in a babbling sort of wayHere's a video of you chatting and crawling at the same time! So far you've mastered the mamama, bababa, and dadada sounds, but I don't think you've attached any meaning to those sounds.  We're betting your first real word will actually be cat.  You love those cats (unfortunately, they don't love you as much back)!

You got your first 2 teeth in (finally!) around 7 months and we think the next 2 are on their way!  You started off slowly with eating solid foods, liking everything we've given you, but not getting all that excited about meal time.  Now you eat with more enthusiasm, opening wide for each bite.  You still don't have any favorites, but pears, apples, and raisins are all a bit hit.

You are a well traveled baby, that's for sure.  A trend that I'm sure will continue.  Right around the 1 year anniversary of our being in Nepal, we visited some sites that you had been to before as a wee little baby in my tummy.  Here we are at Bouda 1 yr ago and today. 





















We also took trips to Shivapuri....


  
Swayam Bhunath (the monkey temple)...


Pokhara...





And Haatiban...















You also were a big help with our first attempt at beer brewing.  You were so helpful, in fact, that we named the beer 'Baby's First Brew.'





Can't wait for more traveling, brewing, and to see what you come up with next!
