8 Months!

 The more time that goes by, the more fun we're having!  Life is pretty dang good in the Wiltbank house right now!

Grandma Velda bought Grant his first RV shirt!  Isn't he the cutest little elk fan?

Getting ready for Uncle Dallin's soccer game.  Grant is SO excited to be from Round Valley!  And rightly so!

Thanks Grandma Velda!

This is only our second family picture ever.  We need to get with it!

Grant loves his daddy!  They are best buddies!

Grandma Velda has a walker at her house and Grant has been loving being able to cruise around and go wherever his little heart desires!

It's so cute seeing him getting around on his own.

 This month, Grant has:

*Mastered crawling

*Learned to wave "bye-bye" (See video)

 *Gotten a few more teeth

*Started drinking apple juice (YAY!!  This is HUGE!  Such a relief to not have to rely completely on breastmilk!)

*Eaten a few beans---also a big step!

 *Started standing up alone. We've been cheering for him when he stands up and now he thinks clapping and cheering means he's supposed to stand up.  He gets so excited, it's pretty dang cute!  Here, his cousins, Aunt Jen, and Grandma Velda all joined in the encouragement:

 Here are a few more of my favorite shots from his 8 month pics!  I can't believe how much he changes every month!

I hate to cover his hair but he looks so studly in a hat!

There's that hair!  This is my favorite shirt Grant owns!  It's almost too small now :(

He's recently started sucking his thumb for the first time.  We're not too worried about it 'cause he doesn't do it too much, plus like everything else, it's cute!

Grant got a little cut above his eye after falling down while trying to stand up, it's finally starting to heal.

As I'm typing this, Mike and Grant are making a fort/crawling obstacle course.  Having this little guy around has made life so much more fun and wonderful!
