Every mom knows that once you have children everything seems to move at warp speed. I can hardly believe that Ward is already 8 months old. Of course the fact that he moves around all the time is helping to convince me! Ward is like one constant ball of activity...the minute we put him down, he is making tracks. He crawls faster and faster by the day. He pulls up on anything that he can get his hands on and cruises successfully all over the flat.
Our family room has had to be baracaded...the footstools are in front of the dvd player, exersaucer is in front of the bookcases and a chair in front of the printer. He heads straight for outlets, paper, remotes, etc....you know, anything he probably shouldn't have and our bathroom door stays closed at all times. He is so much fun. Ward smiles and laughs most of the time- especially when his big sister or Daddy are nearby. Emerson has managed really well with his new found freedom and has been really good about sharing her toys.
On the rare occasion that Ward does sit down, he usually sits like this- on his knees.
Crawling...his knees are literally red from all the crawling.
Pulling up.
Showing off...only one hand!
All smiles.
Caught in the act- trying to get to the computer.
Taking all of the books off of the shelf- a daily activity.
He loves taking things out of the cupboards. In this picture he was playing Peek-A-Boo with the parchment paper.
