Topless White Boy

Matthew loves to be naked. I think it's a true freedom for him. He definately moves faster without all the lunky "outfits" mom puts on him. His most recent weigh in, at 8 1/2 months was just under 23 lbs. Seems to be slimming down a little. Yesterday he stood un-assisted for three seconds. I am going to try to really enjoy this crawling stage while it lasts.

My Favorite Toy

This Boy is something else! It is funny watching his "playing" technique change as he gets older. EVERY chance he gets now he is pulling himself up and playing on everything...the couch, cabinets, drawers, chairs, tables, toys ... you name it. He is also turning into a master begger. He'll climb his way up your pants so he can get a closer look at what your eating. I think mom must be slipping him some food on the side or something?? I sure wouldn't do anything like that. :) Tonight's milestone was climbing the stairs. Watch out world!! Glad his Grampa Matt wasn't here to assist with stair climbing technique. :)
