8 Months old!

Jordan is 8 months old today. I can't believe how big/old he's getting. The past couple months have gone by so fast. He's such a happy baby these days. He just loves scooting around and playing with anything he can find. He seems like he's going to get into things a ton more than Jack ever did. I don't remember Jackson ever getting into things, especially if I didn't want him to get into it. But Jordan loves to try to open all the cupboards especially the one with garbage in it. And he also loves to try to play with outlets which is also a dangerous activity. He has been showing a lot of interest in going downstairs but can't do it. He just scoots toward the stairs so happily and when I say Jordan he looks at me with a huge smile than continues toward them. I need to teach him how to go down them backwards. He's started to pull himself to stand a little. He only does it on lower things like the bathtub and the boat at the mall. But he doesn't really try on the couch, even when I try really hard to tempt him to stand up by putting the things he likes to play with up there. Today to celebrate his birthday I let him try to eat some chewing foods. He had puffs baby snacks and cheerios. He seems to like the cheerios better. He makes a funny face when he gets one in his mouth. He loves when people pay attention to him. It makes him so happy. But he is generally pretty happy unless he's tired or hungry or both.
