8 months...

Happy 8 months Bridger!
Uncle Gregor has decided to introduce my boys to all kinds of things I would never give them. He bought Saxon a corndog and dipped it in ketchup (gross), and then he let Bridger suck on a pickle.

We took Bridger back to the doctor yesterday and he said it is RSV, but that once he hits rock bottom (which I'm hoping he already has) then he will start getting better quickly. He already seems to be breathing better, so we think he's on his way back up. We can start cutting back on his nebulizer too (his peace pipe as Uncle Kasen calls it).

Here's some things going on with Bridger at 8 months:

-He can crawl
-He jabbers and says da-da. We had to hold him down to make him breath into the nebulizer in the doctor's office. Instead of just crying, he was telling the nurse off with all kinds of baby talk. He made it clear that he does not like to be held down!
-He is super-strong! It's a wrestling match just to change his diaper.
-He loves big people food (pizza crust is still his favorite).
-Even sick, he's still my happy baby. All smiles!
-He loves the bath. He spashes and giggles and chews on all of Saxon's toys. We're trying to teach Saxon to "trade" him rather than just take everything away.
-He loves to be tossed around and thrown in the air.
-He still doesn't sleep through the night...one day maybe...
-He has two little chompers. It makes him look so big! They're sharp too. Sometimes he chomps on his own hand and gets mad. He bit Uncle Gregor yesterday. He does like having his new little teeth brushed though.
