Big Boy

So over the past week Jason has changed a ton. Not only did he get those two bottom teeth (which you can see more and more every day) but he's also started crawling on all fours more now and he's pulling himself up on things as well. It was exciting to see him zoom across the floor for the first time. Now he's doing the 'army crawl' less and less and normal baby crawling more and more :)

As for pulling himself up...

This was exciting at first because its so cool to see him standing up and he gets so very excited and all. The bad part is he's started doing this in his crib. We lowered the mattress so that he can't fall out, but that's not the problem. Since he's figured out he can stand up in there, he's been resisting naps like nobody's business. Instead, after you leave the room, he just stands up in the crib and starts yelling to himself or crying if he's angry enough that you left him there. So you have to coax him into sleeping quite a bit. Otherwise you get a cranky pissed off baby...

We leave for Indiana to visit my bio father and half brother in a week. I am so looking forward to not working for a week...but not particularly looking forward to traveling with an 8 month old on a plane. This should be interesting...
