Jace - 8 Months

Jace turned 8 months old on October 9th.  We are still working on the eating thing... he has some days where he does a great job and then the next day we can't even get him to open his mouth.  He can be easily distracted by his big sister or anything else that seems exciting but we've found that he loves having puffs or veggie sticks on his tray.  They seem to hold his attention a little bit!  
Jace is still in the infant carseat, although we have a convertible seat waiting for him.  We are trying to keep him in the carrier for as long as possible.  He often times falls asleep in the carseat and it is so nice to just plop that in the stroller and let him keep sleeping when we go places.  But he is getting so big that its not going to hold him much longer!  
He has started to wave and sometimes we can get him to do it on command.  He says "Mama" all the time...mostly when he's sad, tired, or hungry.  When he babbles, he also says "baba" and "dada." 


He is starting to get up on all fours but has yet to crawl.  He usually just gives up and decides its too much work!


We bought a double stroller off of craigslist, mainly for daily strolls around the neighborhood.  He loves stroller rides and doesn't mind the colder weather we've been having.  His sister isn't so tough.  ;)


Jace is a pretty good sleeper and sleeps around 10-11 hours a night.  He occasionally wakes during the night and mainly because I don't want him to wake Ruby, I usually feed him.  And apparently he is hungry because he will down a bottle and go right back to sleep.  We can lay him down awake for naps and at nighttime and the little sweetheart just goes to sleep!  He needs to teach his sis a thing or two!    


He managed to get himself stuck under the chair but as long as he had his basketball he wasn't phased a bit!  He also managed to get himself "unstuck."  


A rare snuggle moment.  Jace is such a happy kid, it's crazy.  Sometimes I just can't get over how sweet he is....
