Yes, it's already been 8 months since I had this sweet baby!!! And, we all feel that this past week he has changed SOOOO much!!!  It seems like one day when I picked him up from Tracey's, he was doing so much more than the previous day.

-He now says 3 words (when he wants to)-"da-da, ma-ma," and "bye-bye" (with a little wave some times).
-He is pulling up on things by himself, letting go, and walking along the furniture!  He will stand there about 5 seconds before he sits, or grabs on again.
-He is on the move, and we're in trouble.  We thought he was into everything before, but now he can get to things!  He's on all 4's doing a modified sort of army crawl thing.  It's time to fix the baby gate.
-He's all of a sudden started signing 3 things-all done, more, and eat.
-His pincher grasp is getting good, too.  He likes to feed himself green beans or peas from our plates or puffs.
