Eight (months) is Great!!

I'll say this every month for a long time I'm sure, I can't believe Jackson is 8 MONTHS old!!!!! These eight months have flown by, but I can't imagine my life without this perfect little boy! We got so many good shots this month, I wanted to share a few more!
He weighs just over 20 pounds (according to our scale at home) and although I haven't measured him officially, I'm guessing, from how short his sleepers are getting, he's about 28.5 inches long.

YEAHS!!
This kid LOVES, LOVES, LOVES his food!!! We're up to three meals a day and he thoroughly enjoys each one. We've also started to give him some finger foods, and he's so cute with them. He can even get some into his mouth :)
And, as of Monday, he has started rolling ALL OVER THE PLACE!!! We spent the weekend with Griffin and I think he may have provided a little motivation. Watch out Magnus!!!

BOOS!!
Unfortunately, for Matt and I, Jackson does NOT like to sleep through the night. And some nights this means he gets up two or three times!! It seems just when we think he's made it (to waking only once) something changes, he gets the sniffles, a new tooth, and we revert back to waking TOO MANY times!! Mom and Dad are ready for a full nights sleep, so hopefully Jackson will jump on board soon!

so cute. 8 months was one of my favorite {although there are so many}... and of course until Braeden started walking.... sigh.

and, the sleeping through the night thing... it will come. promise. braeden woke up {multiple} times through the night until he was 2.. serious. we would go through phases where he would sleep all night and then bam - more restlessness.

i blame teething. you can blame everything on teething :)

miss you guys.
