My sweet baby is eight months old! This past month was full of new experiences both for Luke and Eric & me. We ventured to South Carolina for my brother's wedding and I packed, what felt like, everything we owned. Traveling with a baby sure is different. What normally would have been about a 9.5 hour trip turned into almost 12 hours. He really did do well in the car and only started fussing with an hour and a half left in the drive (but I can't blame him, I was ready to get out of the car, too!) He experienced the beach for the first time and loved crawling around in the sand - and of course he tried to eat it. While we were in South Carolina he got another tooth and I'm pretty sure he's working on one more as we speak. He's crawling and pulling up on everything and is constantly babbling, although no real words yet.
he would not stay on the lion :)

pulling all the books off the shelf - his favorite

playing in the sand (it was kind of cool that day so he needed long sleeves/pants)
