sutton smith eight months

whew! what a month, little boy!

i'm writing this a little late,

so i'll try to stay within your 

eight months. :)

you've had some big milestones!

crawling on all fours,

pulling up (!) and mimicking 

momma, dada & byebye with a wave. 

you have the BIGGEST smile! 

two teeth and hopefully this new

teething necklace will help with the rest

because those two were tough.

you wear 12-18 month clothes 

because you are pretty long

and size 3 diaper. 

you LOVE baths and 

when you hear water running

you can't get there fast enough. 

you love the big tub 

and think it's so fun to splash. 

you're sleeping good but still waking

up usually once in the night to eat. 

but i know teething makes you 

a little bit restless. :(

you usually wake up around 6,

nap at about 9 and 1 for 

about an hour or so each time 

and then go to bed at 6. 

your "fussy time" when you like to be

held is from 4-6. :)

you had baby dedication and it

was so so special. 

i used to silently SOB 

and hold on tight to your daddy's hand

when we would see other babies being 

dedicated wondering if we would ever have another one. 

and now you're HERE!!

we are so so thankful for you,

sutton. 

and truly cannot imagine life without you.
