On Wednesday, Nov. 5, Alex turned 8 months old! I can't believe he is this old already and wearing size 6-9 and 12 month clothing! He has become quite the little comedian lately as he's been developing new skills and showing more personality. He loves to look in our stainless steel trash can abd see his own relfection and he bats at his reflection. It's hilarious to watch! He also "chases" the cats. As soon as he sees them. he crawls as fast as his little knees can take him to try and grab at their fur. His whole face lights up when he sees them, and both of them do very well with him too. Oscar will lay next to him all of the time and even lets Alex attempt to pet him in his own way. I'm glad that he will grow up with an appreciation for animals. I always had a pet growing up, and loved taking care of all of my animals as a kid. He's also pulling himself up to his knees. He can stand of we pull him up and put his hands on the edge of the furniture. He can actually balance himself quite well for awhile. He just can't ull hiself all the way to his feet yet. I think my favorite thing right now is his adorable laugh. I wish I could bottle it up and keep it. We do have it one video though. It's such a loud and cute laugh! He's just getting so big so fast. He'll be 1 in 4 more months! Below are some pictures of our favorite 8 month old!

Alex hanging out with Daddy--I think he's been watching the 5 dollar footlong commercial too much! LOL.
Alex pulling himself up to his knees--mainly because he sees Oscar in the laundry basket!
Amazed by his own reflection
Still likes to stick that tongue out!
He spends most of his time crawling around on his tummy nowdays

We couldn't believe it when we saw him standing up and holding onto the couch yesterday! That is certainly a BIG milestone. He is too cute and has such a BIG BOY personality! We love him to death!
