Walking King

Paxten has really wanted to start walking the last couple weeks, so we got out his little walker for him and he loves it. I have a feeling he will be running all over the place soon. He had his 9 month check up yesterday. He weighs 20 LBS and is 28" long now. He is growing great and they are really pleased with his progress.

Peek-A-Boo

Last night when we were eating dinner Pax learned this new trick. His high chair has a tray that comes off, and he figured out how to get it off the other day. Last night, he figured out he could play peek-a-boo through the little curve in the tray. It was so cute. He would pull it off and peek around the little corner and start laughing...it was just too cute. He is getting such a cute personality and he is just such a sweet spirit. He is going to be 9 months only tomorrow. I can hardly believe it. He is growing up so fast. He is crawling all over the place now and standing like crazy. He is starting to kneel on his own and pull himself up to things.
The other day my drier quit working and of course, Paxten had the WORST blow out diaper I have ever seen in my life! So here I am with two loads of laundry already waiting to be dried and now poop filled clothes, changing table cover, and an endless list of things with poop on them needing to be washed with a broken drier. GREAT. I have never given him a bath in the sink before because he has a really cool bath chair, but this time I had to since he had poop almost to his neck. He seems pretty satisfied with the job he did...So needless to say, I spent the day at my moms finishing up the laundry and tomorrow I am going to buy a new drier...yippee, just what I always wanted...not.

This is his new favorite place to play. I was playing the piano and turned around and here he was underneath the bench having a good old time!

Pax Update...8 Months

I had to throw this first one in...I snapped this shot this morning and thought it was such a pretty sunrise.

Now, on to Pax...He is already eight and a half months old. He started crawling a few days ago. he is still getting the hang of it, but can at least get to where he wants to go. He can stand really good if he has something to hold onto. He is growing like a weed. I'm excited to take him to the Dr. in a few weeks to see how much he has grown. He is getting to be so active and fun to be around. He is such a sweet little boy and a good baby. He is working on getting his two top front teeth, so he has been a little crabby lately, but still nothing too bad. He is STILL not sleeping through the night, but I guess it's a good trade for such a happy baby.
