Huxon

Our little Huxon is almost 8 months old!  He is such fun to take care of and changing and learning every minute of the day.  Some of Huxey's new tricks are:

• Feeeeeeeeed ME!!  This boy loves his food and if you take too long between spoonfuls you will get an earful every time.  Hux loves pretty much all veggies if mixed with some delicious fruit.  He LOVES his cereal and bananas as well as the puffs.  He is definitely starting to enjoy a little texture in his food too.  We have to hide the bowls, spoons, pouches and bottles out of sight or he will holler like crazy until he gets one.

• Rolling here and there.   Hux has been rolling and started scooting last week.  He's been sitting up since 5 months so now we are focusing on the pre-crawling stage.  Since Hux didn't get to be on his back for 3 months except to sleep, he is really enjoying it now.  He loves kicking and rolling and reaching for all the toys and even enjoys belly time at Grams.

• Hux can say Mooooooooooooooooooooooooom, when he sees his Momma.  It is sometimes in an elevated voice with slight panic if she is more then arms length away, but he's definitely got it.

• Separation anxiety is entering the picture.  Huxey wants to snuggle with Mama if she is within sight.  He does a little complaining when she leaves, but gets over it very quickly.  But when she comes back there is a demand to be held, snuggled and nursed immediately!

• Standing is an all-time favorite thing to do!  He loves to stand against the couch or ottoman and pat, pat, pat away.  He also loves to stand at the rice table and scoop and dump (out onto the floor of course).

• Huxey is grabbing toys, transferring toys, and banging toys together.  He loves the sensory bottles I made that make a lot of noise, which was also one of his cousin's favorites.

He still loves books, and snuggling and being outside as well.  Gram can't wait for Spring to come so we can spend more time outside.

Love our sweet baby boy!
