It’s true…eight really is great! The last month has been a big one for Drew – he’s full on crawling now and we finally see his two bottom teeth coming in!

As much as I want to pause time (or as Zach Morris would say “Time Out”) and savor these moments, it has been so much fun seeing our little guy grow up. He is such a happy fella and a real ham in front of the camera (as evident in his eight month photos below).

And now that he’s more mobile, Drew is quite the handful. It’s almost impossible to change his diaper on the changing table. Sometimes both Keith and I have to tag team it – Keith holds him down while I change his diaper. Drew may be eight months old but he is one strong kiddo. I don’t even know how my mom and aunt can manage him when they’re smaller than me – maybe he goes easier on them. 🙂 Anyway, we hope this strength stays with him as he gets older so that Keith’s dream of Drew becoming a major league baseball player will come true!

Highlights:
– We’ve got a full on crawler!
– Bottom two teeth are finally showing
– For the most part, hasn’t really shown signs of stranger danger – we’ll see if this changes when he’s enrolled in daycare
– Is fascinated by the following: daddy’s beard, the washing machine, the air conditioner and fans, Pearl’s tail, the keyboard at Ong and Ba’s house
– Talks up a storm  – we know this doesn’t count but he kind of says da-da (for daddy) and ba (for my mom)
– His nick name at swim lessons is Mr. Splashy since he loves to splash around
