Eight Months!

Baby Monkey turned eight months old!  To celebrate, he posed not only with Mr. Monkey, the traditional monthly photo friend, but 'lil monkey, his new buddy (the new buddy hangs out at the changing table in hopes he will provide a distraction long enough to get the new diaper roughly on before the wiggle worm breaks out).

It goes without saying that he's getting big!  Two weeks ago he was 20 pounds 10 ounces.  Eating hasn't slowed much over the past two weeks, but he's picking up speed and mobility, so I'm hoping his weight gain will start to plateau here soon.  He's been averaging almost 3 pounds every 6 weeks.  Craziness!

Without further delay, here is the official eight month portrait...I've included his 4 month photo below as well as a comparison. Enjoy!
