Eight months and on the move!!

Xavier is now eight months old. 

Wow how time has gone by fast!!! 

We love little Mr Moo more and more every day.

His last checkup on the 25th of February delivered these stats: 
Height -71.5 Centimeters, Weight - 8.238 Kgs, Head Circumference - 45 Centimeters
Height - 28.15 Inches, Weight - 18.16 Pounds, Head Circumference - 17.72 Inches

He works on his sounds every day and loves to babble.

Look at my two teeth! First two finally poked through when we came through Germany on the way back here.

I can play them, right mom?

Some of his favorite toys at this moment are the new ones he got in Colorado: His Eric Carle Caterpillar, All the Sorter Toys he got and his tag blanket.

 

This is one of his favorite things to do now is walk around the ExerSaucer while he plays with the toys. 

He has really enjoyed being able to move and man can he MOVE. He started to really get the forward crawling motion while he was at Busha and Grandpa's house in Colorado.

Look at him, so peaceful!

 
 We tried our first biscuit (cookie) today. He loved it and gummed it until it was no more.

Sadie and Gus were ready and willing to clean up any of the crumbs.

Look at that face!

Look at my boys!
I LOVE MY BOYS!

The Bottom Foods that he has tried: Peas

Seven Months and Going Home

So Xavier is seven months now and wiggling and growing every day.

Look at how long he is!

Yep, We love our toes! They make great chew toys!

He loves to smile and sit up! He is also a drool monster, since he is trying to work on getting those teeth in.

 

Oh Lime... I don't think he likes it!

He can almost sleep anywhere!I was holding him when he slowly went down and passed out for awhile.

Solids... Oh What Fun!

We are going to do what now?

We started the adventure into solids recently as well with him. We were having a hard time finding a cereal with just rice in, almost everything here was flavored or mixed with something else. I did more research into what types of food that we can start him on and wanted to start with sweet potatoes but alas you could no longer get them or any type of squash. Frustrating to say the least.

Xavier waiting for his first bite from daddy!

So he liked the second rice we got him and everyone or everything around him ended up with the rice on it as well. Plus the pups can get rice on them to if you decide to sit on the floor to feed Xavier.

So we moved on to trying Sweet Potatoes. Boy did he like them! 

See everyone, including dad, has food on them when its food time.

He's helping wash his face or eat the washcloth

This is the face we get when you try  to clean his face during or after! Not a happy camper!
