Saturday, August 16, 2008eight months old!milo gives being eight months old a thumbs way up!  these are crazy times in our household. for anyone who doesn't already know, we are planning to move to texas at the beginning of october to live for seven months in the apartment on my parents' property. we are really excited about it but have to do lists of what needs to be accomplished before we go that go out the door. meanwhile, milo just keeps changing daily before our eyes. his third and four teeth are coming in right up top, which has made him unusually grumpy these past few weeks. everything he can get his chubby little handrs on goes right in the mouth to be rubbed against the top gums. no one ever buy any toys for this kid, please! he goes right past his toys to play with the empty plastic water bottles and empty cardboard boxes. mama's sunglasses are another favorite; he loves to pull them right off of my face and into his mouth. speaking of things going into his mouth, we are extremely lucky because milo has liked every food that he's tried so far. here he is patiently waiting for his dad to feed him some mashed up pinto beans at a mexican restaurant:  a short list of just some of the foods he's tried (and liked!) so far: avocado, plums, peaches, bananas, applesauce, apricot sauce, corn tortilla, brown rice cakes, nopalitos, black beans, pinto beans, mild guacamole, pineapple, tamale, sweet potatoes, hash browns, tomato, corn, and a half dozen other fruits and vegetables. we did learn the hard way a few weeks ago that while he loves to eat edamame beans with his mama, his body doesn't actually break them down, just digests them whole. so we won't be making that mistake again! milo has been getting a lot of rides from his dad, as usual:   and our friend shantelle took this wonderful picture of milo on my shoulders on the day of matt's and my combined birthday party:  he's growing up so quickly! we can't wait to find out what the next month will bring.
