8-months-old

Ben is 8-months-old and it just doesn't seem possible. Time is going so fast, only four short months and he's 1! He is doing great with fine motor skills and problem solving. He doesn't have any interest in crawling and he still doesn't seem to realize he can't throw himself backwards when sitting up. The paranoid mama I am still puts pillows behind and beside him when he's sitting and playing. Below, there's a video of his great fine motor skills. He has a nice pointer and thumb grasp and gets puffs in his mouth about 90% of the time. He has been so happy lately, no teeth currently working their way in...but we know they're coming. No rest for the weary.
