Will is coming into his personality and loves to show it every chance he gets. He smiles more than any baby I have ever known... It is humorous to watch because as soon as he knows your looking at him he gives you that big ole dimply grin. precious precious. His naps are very predictable now and I feel like I am not super stressed anymore running to one place between naps/feedings etc...
He is such a fun loving little guy! No matter where I put him down in the house he always heads straight for the playroom - like there are magnets drawing him there. He can crawl on all fours for a while and then he can't support his weight so he goes back to the "alligator" crawl -(where his arms and legs are going at the same time and his belly drags)... he gets going pretty fast! He is a great eater and is starting lots of different finger foods - his favorites are those baby mum mums.. looks bland to me, but whatever! :) He weighs around 21 pounds and is in mostly 12 month clothing.
Will goes to bed pretty early around 6:30 most nights and wakes up around 5:30 now - thanks to the time change. He simply adores his big sister and can laugh and play with her for hours. Thankfully she adores him as well and loves to play with him too. Audrey is so excited in the morning to climb in his crib with him to play and he just laughs so hard it is contagious. Will is also the most ACTIVE baby I have ever seen. Constantly going, moving, kicking wiggling and bouncing. The boy doesn't stop. Did I mention that Will is also a climber? Yes, if there is something low enough for him to reach he will pull up on it and climb right on top.. for example my suitcase a couple of weeks ago was on the floor and he just climbed right on top of it and was sitting with a huge grin of accomplishment as I walked into the room.
He is so sweet - he can just make my day when I go into his room and I see him sitting up in the crib just lauging and smiling at me. Ahhh. I know how fast this season fades and I'm trying to savor every second... I remember this wonderful age with Audrey. I am head over heels in love with my little man and couldn't imagine our family without him... Okay - I'm going to go squeeze on him now!

We miss y'all too! I drove by your old street and was so sad especially thinking about how much fun last fall was with you! I can't believe they are already 8 months! Wow, time flies. He is so precious!
Don't you just love how much little boys can touch their mommy's hearts? I just adore my little man. Even though he can push my buttons at times. No matter what kind of day I am having, just seeing him makes me smile and fills my heart. Love- pdesse
