8 Months

Benson turned 8 Months on Nov 5. We just love our little Benson Bear. He is such a good kid. Here is what he has been up to:

-Loves to eat and is a good eater. He eats everything we give him, but loves homemade strawberry-banana yogurt, cheese, toast, sweet potatoes, and carrots.
-Crawls around and plays by himself really well. We often find him in Weston's room playing by himself.
-Loves to go outside and crawls to an open door as fast as he can to try and make it out.
-Stands up to everything and can switch between objects.
-Has stood up by himself for 12 seconds, took one step, and is starting to let go of things while he standing up.
-Started "talking" with more consonants. Ba-bas, ga-gas, and has said Da-da a few times.
-Opens drawers, cupboards, and pushes doors open.

Swinging outside. If you look close you can see his two little teeth.
Loves to play in Jason and Ashley's ball pit and crawl through the tunnel
Sleeping with Dad. He is still a little attached to me right now, so Casey takes advantage of these opportunities when he can.
Whenever I load or unload the dishwasher, Benson comes crawling as fast as he can from whereever he is at. He loves to play in the dishwasher.
Playing under the chairs. Weston did this same exact thing. I think pub chairs are the perfect height for babies to play under.
