We gave Jonathan the opportunity to open his own presents this year. We figured that he would get the hang of it since he loves to crinkle paper, but he wasn't really interested. He preferred to eat the presents instead. He got toys, clothes, pajamas and books but his most favorite thing was Grandma Vicki's snowglobe! He also enjoyed the hugs and kisses he got from his cousins Garrett and Odin!
Chris and I bought these trucks for Jonathan for Christmas. He got them early though because we couldn't wait for Christmas to come!
When Chris and I drink from most cups, we are safe, but when Jonathan sees us drinking from one of these blue cups, he thinks he needs to also. So far, we've only let him drink water. He still gets most of the water down his front, but there are times when he actually gets more water swallowed than on himself!
Jonathan is getting so good at sitting up. He still tips over occasionally, but he can now sit without any support. He likes to sit and play with toys that he can reach around him.
Jonathan is eight months old now! He's been working really hard to get mobile! He is getting pretty good about scooting around. He will get up on his hands and knees and then push his legs to move himself forward. He doesn't move his hands yet, but he still seems to be able to move around. When he sees something he wants to get his hands on, he can really move! No more sitting on the carpet to read the newspaper unless I want a helper!
