So I guess Ishould do a new update now that Jack is 8 Months Old! This last month has gone by super fast and Jack has really started to get fun and show Alot of personality! He learns new things everyday and quickly masters them after he figures out how to do them. It was fun because half of the month we were home in Utah so our family got to see these changes! Here are some fun new things about him.
He has almost too many teeth to count now, actually only 8 but it is a mouthful! He got all 4 on top within one week. There have been many times I have swore that I will never nurse him again, but I haven't actually followed through with it. Eight teeth is not fun to have while still nursing, we have had a couple of biting instances (if you know what I mean). I love this picture of him trying to show you his teeth.
He has been clapping for a while but now he is a crazy clapping fool! He loves to clap and has truly mastered it. he actually has pretty good ruthym and can stay pretty close to on beat while clapping to a song.
He has only been "officially" crawling for a week but he is already into everything. Of course he usually heads straight for the Halloween candy (he is not stupid you know). I guess I am the stupid one for not putting it up higher. Between him and Luke I doubt we will have any candy for Halloween.
He has been loving baseball this fall. I think it is his favorite sport. Everytime Luke turns it on he is all of sudden glued to the tv. Look at his eyes and how he is mesmerized by the game. To bad Dad and him can't cheer for the Cubbies anymore this fall!
While we were in Utah we went to Gardner's Village. While we were there Jack really wanted some of Grandma's Diet Coke. So I said sure, if you can suck it up the straw you can have some (totally thinking there was no way he could do it) and of course he proved me wrong, and by his and my surprise he got a big ol' swig of Diet Coke. It was pretty funny, his eyes got all big and watery. So now he can drink out of a straw. (Of course I don't intentionally give him diet coke) But he has fun drinking water and juice from a big cup. He also will eat anything and everything you give him. I was sure that I ruined him by giving him tastes of sweets to early but actually his favorite foods are vegetables. He loves them. He will eat any kind you put in front of him. I will even just pull out frozen peas or corn out of the freezer and he will gobble them up. I am a very proud mom to have a boy that eats his vegetables.
So I think that Jack and Avery got a little too close and had too many kisses while we were in Utah. A week after we came home Summer called me and told me that Avery had thrush. So then I start noticing symptoms on Jack. I thought I was just being paranoid but then the signs started to get pretty bad. (I don't know if you know what thrush is but it can get pretty gross) So we took him in and sure enough he has thrush. So him and Avery are now being treated for thrush and I think next time we won't let them be kissin' cousins.

so cute I can't believe they both have thrush that is crazy! I also can't believe he has 8 teeth that is insane my kids don't even have teeth at 8 months!
He is soo cute. And always smiling!
So cute! He's such a fast learner. Up until a couple of weeks ago Mac would eat anything too but then all of a sudden he stopped liking vegtables. Now I put veggies on his stray, he takes a bit, spits them out and then chucks them over his shoulder. It's pretty funny until he does it when were eating at a ward member house:) He's such a butthead.
