He Tries so Hard. . . Well Not Really


So Tavis is now 8 months and not crawling but he is starting to kind of try. It's been so hard with his helmet because of it's weight and how it is on his neck that he really really hates to be on his stomach at all! If you put him on his stomach he immediately rolls over to his back and get very upset if you stop him from going to his back. But, he is standing with some help and is loving the tallness of himself. He has also started this arm raising thing and starts blaabering loudly when he puts his arms in the air. . it just makes us laugh so hard. Lately he has really found his voice and chooses to share it at every opportunity possible. Well in these pictures was one of our try to reach/crawl. . maybe creep even a little episodes and as you can see in one of the pictures and stops for a rest and that was that. Have fun and enjoy the pictures. Oh yeah and he reaches and grab anything! I love this stage. . We are such proud parents and love every bit of this!

Hi Tavis!!! Can't wait to see you in a few weeks, cutie :) We'll practice your crawling but we won't tell mommy !

He's getting so big! He looks so cute and grown up standing in that picture! Every stage is so much fun seeing them learn new things. Enjoy the less mobile ones!

He is so adorable! I don't know if I've ever really seen him in person, but when I do, I am going to squeeze those cute, chubby cheeks! I love them!
