Andrew's 8 Month Birthday



Today is Andrew's 8 month birthday and we're going to call his 8th month the 'Adventurous Andrew' month. He's walking around (actually taking real steps) if you hold his hands for balance. He can almost pull himself up on our coffee table ottomans. He's diving forward to reach for things (almost too eagerly). He's a daredevil. However, he's still not that interested in crawling - he prefers an army crawl or pivoting around on his stomach to do a 360 as I move a toy around and out of his reach (yes, this sounds mean, but I'm just trying to help him crawl!).

Check out the additions to the Watch Andrew Grow album here.


We've also posted some pictures from the Gibbons family visit last weekend here. (We really need to do a better job of taking pictures of other people with Andrew, but none of us are as cute as he is.)


We are headed to Wisconsin on Friday, which means Andrew will have his first plane ride. We're hoping that all goes smoothly at the airport and that he does okay on the plane. We're looking forward to seeing our Wisconsin family!

A Special Video for Aunt Katie

Before Andrew heads to Wisconsin to get his fill of Wisconsin Badgers, we thought we should post this video for Andrew's Aunt Katie to show that he is learning his Georgia Bulldog cheers.  Plus, he was going to outgrow his GA gear before football season.

Week with Grandma and Jason's 30th











Andrew enjoyed a week with Grandma Martin as his nanny. They went to the library and Mr. Nigel. Grandma Martin and Jason also took Andrew to the subdivision pool for the first time. He liked to splash around and stand (with assistance) in the pool. Finally, Andrew got his first taste of ping-pong but has many years to go before he can beat his dad.

Also, we celebrated Jason's 30th birthday with both sides of the family in-town.
