a big day for Justin

This update was supposed to be posted on Tuesday(6/2) but I wanted to add a picture....

The boys are 8 months, ONLY 8 months and where have my babies gone....It's like someone turned on a switch for Justin today and he started doing all these new things TODAY--maybe it was the new broccoli he ate at lunch. He certainly is moving more and more every day. Today he started "saying" things other than squealing at the top of his lungs--happy or sad, not really words yet, but completely new sounds. He also started crawling on hands and knees--not ALL the time and not fast but he got half way across the room. He's ALWAYS sitting up in his crib if he's awake and crying and yesterday evening he started trying to pull up onto the couch. He can only get up onto his knees, but high kneeling and never mind the fact that it is just way too soon!! PT must be working...slow down Justin I'm not ready for all these new changes, but I'm still really proud of you!!


Guy and I were in the living room with Justin and his big blue ball and he screeched "ba" Guy and I looked at each other...we swear he said ball as his first word--mind you he didn't say it again. Then at dinner Guy and Abigail both heard him say "da,da,da,da" and they think he said dada. It continued throughout the night, he looks at you, watches your lips and mouth and definitely tries to imitate what you're saying, like hi, baby, and thank you....I know you hear what you wanna hear--but he's "saying" lots more!! And to be fair to Ryan..Guy also thinks that he was waving his whole arm when we say "hi". He did do it when Guy was waving to him, but then wouldn't do it again, so who knows.


BUT by yesterday (Thurs (6/4) Justin was already pulling to STAND!! He did so during PT for the first time at his play table, then later at the couch and again at the play table showing off for Daddy!! Seriously Justin PLEASE SLOW DOWN!!
