Nico celebrated his 8-month birthday on November 18th. He crawls very well now, easily moving from crawling to sitting as the mood strikes. Nico also pulls himself to standing at every opportunity before slowly lowering himself back to a sitting position. His newfound mobility enables him to explore the world around him. More often than not, that means he puts everything he can reach into his mouth.
Speaking of his mouth, Nico now has four teeth, two on top and two on the bottom. He continues to eat Earth's Best Organic pureed fruits and vegies but we've also given him puffs and teething biscuits in the last few days. His pincher grasp improves by the day. Soon we'll be serving him table food. We've been signing "more" to him during meals for a while. While a couple of times, he has put his hands together, we're not yet sure if he equates it with more food or he's merely clapping. Nico loves to pat his tray, the coffee table, etc. almost as much as he loves playing peek-a-boo. The thing he loves most of all though is watching his older brother do almost anything. He lights up whenever he sees Spencer. We can't wait to see what changes the next month will bring.
Finally, a look at big brother Spencer at the same age. Enjoy!
