9 Months: Monthiversary Today

Today our little August Bear turns 9 months old!

To celebrate, here is the promised better picture of him in his new car... still have to affix the decals, but that will happen soon enough.



Also, here are two pictures of August & Mary up in Maine, weekend before last. Yes, this does change his personal earth map, but that'll have to be updated later.

8 Months: Cold & Car

August has his first ever cold, and he's been upset all last night and all day today. Poor kid. He's been quite sad. But his new car from his grandma in Hawaii is cheering him up nicely. It suits him quite well, I hope you'll agree, as do his blue PJs.



Sorry for the photo quality... better shots to come soon.

8 Months: Weekend Getaway

We went on a little getaway up to Maine this weekend. Whole family. Here's a photo from my phone:



August is crashed out in his fancy new baby backpack. It's cool.

8 Months: Photos

We couldn't resist the opportunity to be photographed with August in his fancy blue overalls. Very cute.







One thing we've noticed recently: he seems to have learned object permanence. Something tells me he learned it long ago and we're just now noticing, but it's kind of cool. If Mary disappears by stepping through a door into another room, August watches and waits excitedly for her return.

8 Months: Footage

Here's some August footage we've captured over the past few weeks, but haven't had time to post to the blog.

This footage is about a month old, but he's such a cute smiler I couldn't resist:



Here's some more footage Mary got. She left August on the playmat, came back few minutes later to find him moving furniture around the apartment:


And then there's this: the baby and the mom and the dog:
