stand up and plop

Bryce figured out how to stand up without holding on. He thinks this is the greatest move ever and laughs and laughs and laughs.
He also took his first steps with a walker he got from Grandmom for Christmas. It won't be long and he'll be walking.

Mr. Drama

He could win an academy award for this!

last toothless grin

Bryce's bottom two teeth are poking through. He is drooling excessively and a little cranky. Hopefully the teeth will come through quickly.

Happy 8 Month Birthday, Bryce!

Bryce was 8 months old on the day after we returned from vacation. Eight months seems to be a big developmental time for Bryce. He started crawling, swimming, pulling up, and learned how to drink out of a straw.
Bryce loves singing "twinkle twinkle" and "itsy bitsy spider". He loves drinking out of a cup, splashing, taking a bath, cuddling, playing with my hair, watching his brother, eating paper and eating.
He absolutely hates having his face wiped and lotioned. He also hates having his nose wiped. He screams bloody murder the instant a tissue touches his nose.

split rock resort

We only ventured out a few times on our vacation because it was so cold.
Here we are checking out the sights at the resort.

crazy bubbles

Putting bubble bath into a whirlpool bathtub is crazy fun!
Who knew?

really moving

Bryce has been rolling and crawling to get around the house, but only for very short distances. Now he is really crawling. He can make it all the way through the tunnel without stopping. He is suddenly into everything! When the door to our vacation room opened into the hallway he giggled and sprinted toward it!
