Liam is 8 months old today! So crazy. He has grown so much in the past few months. He started crawling right at 6 months and has been into everything ever since. Sometimes when he crawls, he'll get too excited and just flop. He will then lay on the floor for a lil bit almost as if he's trying to convince you that he meant to do that. He can pull up on just about anything and will walk along the furniture. Will says he's taken a step towards him on his own twice now but I haven't seen it. He can stand by himself but only for a couple seconds and then he grabs back on. He has his two bottom teeth and I'm pretty sure he's working on those top teeth right now.
He says dada pretty much ALL day long. He gives awesome slobbery kisses and has a really good grip so keep your hair out of his reach. When he's excited about something his feet go crazy. He just constantly rotates them in circles. I believe his aunt and uncle said it was to keep the cankles away. :) He LOVES animals. Will's parents have a dog and Liam goes nuts over him every time he sees him. He also really likes my parents' cat Kota. He eats solids like a champ - the only thing he hasn't liked so far is cold pumpkin bread. He liked it when it was warm though.
When he nurses, or when I'm holding him to put him to sleep, he likes to prop his foot up on me. I think it's adorable. He also will grunt/growl at me if I tickle him or do something he thinks is funny while he's nursing. Also adorable. At his 6 month check up, he was 18 lbs - so he's a good sized baby. We love him to pieces and he keeps us smiling and laughing. Although he is starting to get in trouble for biting now.
Liam does this thing we like to call "hulking out". He's been doing it since about 4.5 - 5 months. He just screeches at you and it's so loud. He's not actually mad - he thinks it's funny. Well it has progressed to him straining himself to the point of his face turning bright red. The other night he was doing it while I was feeding him and I actually got a bit nervous because his face was so red and his eyes were watering. He still thinks it's so funny though. Here's a video:
And some pictures of the last few months:
