Eight!

2/3 of a year! Amazing :o) He is our babbling, crawling, cruising ray of sunshine. Everynight we thank the Good Lord for our precious boy.

Since our 7 month update, I've returned to work, and Corban has gone back to daycare. He has continued his early to bed, early to rise routine. This is fine with us!! It works for him and seems to keep him pretty stable. Plus, it gives Jaime and I some time to catch up, relax, and then go to bed. We're tired too!
Corban has changed quickly in the last month. Right before returning to daycare-he started crawling!! He was just a few days over 7 months. Now he is 8 months, and he is FAST! At the time he started crawling, he had also been pulling himself up on his crib-and on other things. Now he pulls up on everything, cruises around the furniture-and can carefully pick up objects off the floor-and stand back up with them. He is quite the explorer and gets so tickled when he crawls after us out into the hallway. He can hardly contain himself when he sees Haley ,even more so now that he has become mobile. She has learned to run from him! He just laughs and keeps in hot pursuit :o) In the mornings, he wakes up , smiles, kisses and squeels. He is so happy. Such a sweetie.
He is great with finger foods now-and hasn't turned his nose up at anything really. Although I don't think peas are his favorite. Who can blame him?! So far he has had-watermelon, pears, carrots, butternut squash, yellow squash, sweet potato, peas, whole beans, a little bread, yogurt,parsnips,broccoli, organic apple cinnamon cereal, puffs, avocado, peaches, plums, apples, and bananas.
Jaime and I have been going to church on Saturday nights now-since Corban naps during the time we would go on Sundays. It's been a nice way to end the week. There is a band and the leader is great-super voice! Corban goes to the church nursery now and so it's sort of a nice time for mommy and daddy time.
