Approaching 9 months...

Atticus is almost 8 months and 3 weeks.

He can go from lying position to sitting-up position by pushing himself backward & tucking on leg underneath his body. He can lean forward on both hands & prop himself up on his hands and knees. He is dying to crawl & almost there. When he pushes forward, he lands on his belly - legs and knees up in the air - & looks like a sunbathing whale.

Just in the past few days, he has begun yelling out for attention, we assume. He contorts his face (one eye squinting) & opens his mouth loudly... "Ahhh!" Robby thinks he has learned this from his classmates in day care who shout out for attention.

Yesterday, he began clapping his hands. I'm not sure he's doing it deliberately, though. He also started lifting both arms up.

Our baby boy is getting so big!
