What Houston's Been Up To

I feel like I am always posting about Peyton and my mom pointed out that I have only posted a couple of pictures of Houston since Christmas. So I decided that this post would be about Houston and a little bit about Peyton (I can't help myself).

Well Houston just keeps getting bigger and bigger everyday. He will be 8 months on the 15th of this month. When I took him in for his 6 month appointment a week before Christmas he weighed 22 lbs 3 oz and was 29 inches tall. I suppose by now he is probably at least 24 or 25 lbs and another 1 or 2 inches taller. Last night I finally put away the infant carseat and broke out the toddler one. I just finally got sick of packing him around because between him and the carseat it is quite a load. Plus I was noticing for the first time last night that the infant carseat is for babies that weigh 20 lbs or less and are 26 inches or less tall. Oops!

Houston has been such a good baby so far. He has been sleeping through night for several months now and still loves his 2 long naps during the day. He is very content just playing on the floor, in his walker or in his jumperoo and he is constantly laughing at his big sister. She can just walk by him and he starts cracking up. He sits up real well now, rolls all over the place and gets around pretty good by scooting with his arms and legs but he has yet to crawl. I know it is still early but it just seems that because he is so big he should be crawling by now. Soon I suppose. He is quite the eater. Tonight he had a jar of carrots, 1/2 jar of pears, a hand full of sweet potato puffs and a whole banana cream pudding all to himself. Plus he'll have his bottle before he goes to bed. But he might be up late tonight with a little sugar in him. Here are some recent pictures of him. The ones of him sitting up on the floor were from a couple days ago and the ones of Peyton feeding him pudding were from tonight.
