Nap time

Okay so this is how he usually wakes up, especially after he sees you standing over him!

Ride'em cowboy

Okay Paul has decided that Joel is going to grow up and be an adrenaline junky, maybe a bull rider.

Paper Mache Fun

So as you can see we had lots of fun, as did Joel. Joel not only played in it but he ate it as well (don't worry its just flour and water w/ some salt), he had a blast! Don't you just miss doing those things you did in Elementary school. Next time we are finger painting!! :)

Working on his crawling (he is doing the army crawl)

Look at him go! He will probably figure out how to crawl soon.

He talks (for real)!

I am telling you our boy is a genius he say's Da da & Mama at 8 months (to be honest he started this at the middle of last month). Watch the video I have proof of one of them being said!

8 Months Old

Can you believe it he is 8 months old today, AMAZING! He is not quite crawling yet but he is trying, he just can't figure it out. Like I have said before though the boy loves to stand it wouldn't surprise me if he walks before he crawls. As you can see he is a very happy boy and as most of you know he has been like that since birth. To be honest he is like this 90% of the time (to yes as a mom I am blessed.) :)
