Matthias is 8 months old today!! I sure can't believe that he's already 8 months old! He is getting big! He can kind of crawl now. He can move his arms and his legs, but doesn't seem to understand exactly how it all works. He can move around a little bit though. He's getting there! Now that he's starting to move he seems to be more curious than ever. He wants to see what everything is and grab everything.

Justus is doing great too! He can now say "choo choo". He says "Mommy" pretty clearly now too. He could always say "mommy", but it wasn't very clear that he was referring to me or if that was even what he was saying. He definitely uses it a lot now to get my attention though. We're just excited that he is finally starting to talk! He's also been eating a bigger variety of foods lately, which is a huge improvement. He is willing to try whatever we are eating, which I think will make my life a little easier. Now if only he could master using the fork and spoon!!

Since the 4th of July is Friday we are going to attempt taking the boys to some fireworks. We will see how it goes. I think Justus will be okay as long as he isn't cranky because it will be kind of late by the time the fireworks start. I don't think Matthias will really mind. I'll post some pictures this weekend hopefully!
