8 Months Old

Reid was 8 months old on June 25th.  So, as usual, I'm a little behind in posting. ;)  Reid is doing great!  He is waking up once a few times at night for a bottle.  It really depends on who you ask...We put Reid to bed around 8:00 and he wakes up at 11:00 for a bottle.  However, we are still up so I say that doesn't count.  He then sleeps until around 1:00 a.m. and then wants another bottle again at 5:00 a.m.  Rico has started taking most of those 1:00 feedings! :))  He is taking two naps a day and both are usually 30-45 minutes long.  Reid really enjoys his cereal in the mornings mixed with some sort of fruit, bananas being the most popular, and he has a veggie and fruit for lunch and in the evenings.  I didn't get too many smiles from him this time but here's our guy at 8 months. :)

8 Months:

20" head circumference

25" height

16 lbs. 8 oz. weight

We decided to have Fairbanks hang out in this photo session.  Fairbanks and Reid are big buds.  He's around for a lot...naps, playtime, cuddling, car rides, etc...  It's only right that Fairbanks finally make his debut on the blog!

I've been wondering if Reid would have fair skin like Spencer and I or have that darker complexion like Rico and Briggs.  Well, lately I've been looking at his photos and I think he's going darker.  I'm excited about this because poor Spence and I usually burn once a summer before we tan.  Rico and Briggs? Don't even get me started...I'm so jealous!

We go to Charleston, SC soon for our annual family vacation!  Reid is ready to go with his hat on!  I just got his seersucker pants in the mail!!! :)

Fairbanks is stylin' also.
