Breaking news!!!!

Eric has a tooth! Eric has a tooth! Whoo hoo Eric has a tooth. His very first tooth. (Can you tell I'm a first time parent?) All these months of fussiness and teething....
He just turned 8 months last Monday. He's been teething since about 4 months and it's taken a while to come to the surface but now it has. It's the bottom left one.
Also, he's almost crawling and sitting up. This past week, he has started scooting a little, but mostly he rolls over to get to where he wants to go. He's getting so strong. I'm so proud of him.
He's getting to be a big boy. Soon he'll have his own room and he can crawl and play with his toys all he wants. Also, we'll have to get a "forward facing" car seat because he has almost outgrown the "rear facing" one he has. (looking back, I'd wished that we would have bought the convertible kind but oh well).

Just an update.... The packing is coming along. I just had to take a break. I was getting a little stressed thinking about all the details about the move and such.
Anyway, Eric is such a joy. I love being a mom.
