Ryan at 8 months + 1 week

Laughing with Birthday Bunny at 8 months old



Ryan is already 8 months old.  He is so adorable! I love looking at him, and I love playing with him so does his Daddy.  My favorite times (other than all of them) are getting him out of bed to start the day and bathtime.  His face is utterly radiant at those moments, and I can count on seeing major smiles when I get him out of bed in the morning and when he is splashing in his duck tub at night.  Mental note made to record these moments, so you can see them too.

Look who's got some teeth!

Ryan's bottom teeth are noticable now. He is also getting his 2 cuspids.  The cuspids are the two teeth on either side of his upper front middle teeth.  I expect this is going to look pretty funny. My hope is that the two middle top are not far behind.  Here is some video of me playing with Ryan tonight after bathtime and his bottom teeth are visible.  It is short, so you can play it here by clicking on the picture:

In this week's blog, I have included video links to youtube with Ryan doing his military "crawl," which is still his main mode of transportation.
