Beckett is Eight Months Old

You guys! I can't with this kid. He insits on growing like a weed and I'm so overly emotional about every little milestone he makes. I guess that's what happens with the last baby. Every stupid little thing is that much more special. "Oh my god! It's the last first french fry! Gah!" Ok. Maybe I'm not quite that bad. Beck hit 8 months right after Valentine's Day, and a few days before Zoey's 4th birthday, and you guys, I've been feeling all the feels.
I seriously need to get a grip already! 

Eight Month Stats

24.5 lbs (99%) | 29 inches (89%)

He's still in size 4 diapers but has made the jump to 12-18 month clothes. It really depends on the brand, but they're in there and it freaks me out. The kid is a giant!

A few weeks ago, we were in a little local shop we love, and there was a sweet little girl toddling around with grandma chasing after her. She came right up to Beck in the stroller and I asked how old she was. Grandma answered, "She turned one a few weeks ago and just started walking. Has yours started walking yet?" Haha! Lady, little man is only 7 months old!!

Major Milestones

I had my first real food - cinnamon toast. Daddy calls me an eating machine

I cut my first tooth (now have bottom two with more on the way soon!)

Finally rolled from front to back & now I like to roll all over the place

I'm army crawling & trying to get on all fours...soooo close

I finally ditched the infant car seat & now I have a big one just like my sister's
