Bennett turned 8 months

I'm a little behind in my blogging, but I think that is what happens when the second baby comes.  At least that is my excuse!  I still take lots and lots of pictures though.  I just don't upload them everyday like I used to.  Anyways, Bennett turned 8 months last Monday.  He was sick recently and has been to the doctor a few times so I happen to know his current weight is 23.2 pounds.  He's still growing like a weed!  The boy loves to eat.  He has four teeth, but will soon fill in the fangs with the middle teeth.  I see the bud of at least one and he's been rather fussy lately.  He's still easy going and happy but fussy for him.  He finally rolled over from his tummy back over to his back.  He doesn't do it a lot because he prefers to be sitting up but he does roll over now both ways.  He is also becoming a little mobile.  He kind of wiggles around and reaches for things and then lands on his tummy and moves that way.  He hasn't started the army crawl by any means but he can move a little bit.  He loves to stand up and play peek-a-boo.  I started giving him Baby Mum-Mum's this week.  They are like rice cake wafers and he loves them but now he doesn't want pureed foods so I'm trying to figure out what to feed him.  I'm at a loss as to what comes next.  He likes cheese and turkey and I gave him a bite of scrambled eggs and I'm almost certain that is a big no-no in the allergy world.  Oh-well!

Good morning
Ella loves to get in the crib with him.  If you enlarge the photo you can see his fangs.
SOOOOO happy!
