8 months

Kent turned 8 months old last week, and I've been too busy to post anything. We are playing in St. George with family for a few weeks and its been crazy and fun!

A few quick things about Kent at 8 months.

Kent weighs just over 23 pounds.

Kent is still in the 18 month clothes. He has been in this size of clothes longer than any other size.

Kent pulls himself up on EVERYTHING! He is such a busy boy!

Kent is a crawler and gets into anything he can.

Kent is a good little eater. He eats three meals a day and its usually what the rest if the family is eating for dinner, plus her nurses 4-6 times a day and lots at night.

Kent still wakes up a lot during the night and has still been sleeping with me, but that is going to change when we get back home. I'm going to work on getting him to sleep all night in his bed so that I can sleep with my other boy when he comes home.

Kent is a little more anxious about strangers than he has been before. It took him a little time to warm up to his grandparents. Not too much time, just a few minutes, but at first he just wanted to stick with his mama. He hasn't ever done that before this trip.

He is extremely active and loves to be bounced and jiggled and roughed up a bit.

He loves Rachel and follows her everywhere.

He loves his mama! I'm totally his favorite person.

He is a snuggler.

He can climb stairs.

He loves playing in water.

He is really funny because if there is something in his way he doesn't try to go around it, he tries to go over it. Instead of going around the table and chairs, he goes right through them and bonks his head the whole time. He climbs over legs and toys and has even tried climbing over his cousin Lexi who is about the same age as him but isn't quite as mobile.

He is the most happy chill baby ever. He likes to play and play and play.

I can't think of much else right now, but I'm so glad this Kent boy is in our family! He is such a sweet spirit and our family definitely wouldn't be complete without him!
