Truett's 1st's!!!!!!!!!!

Truett will be 8 month and 2 weeks this Tuesday (the 9th of October). He is given us a couple of firsts this week. On Thursday, the 4th of October, we noticed his bottom two teeth. We haven't been checking them because they are never there (when we checked previously). So, we thought we'll notice them eventually. Well, over at "family" night with my family, my sister(Natalie) says "Oh, he has teeth?" I casually smirked "yea, they come and go" (meaning they seem like they are always going to come in and then disappear! She said "Uhhh, ok". Later I gave him a smidgen of my mashed potatoes and felt two lovely fixtures in his mouth!! Go Truett!! He has been hiding them :)


Today as DADDY was watching Truett I heard a bump and looked to find Truett mustering up the biggest cry I've heard from him. If you have met Truett you know he is not a "crier" (thank you Babywise) and a good " natured" baby, so to hear this cry brought tears to my eyes. Daddy picked him up and comforted him for a moment until I Truett reached over to me, I wanted to cry when I saw him! He had a bump on his left forehead and a cut under his left eye. He banged it pretty good. Bless his sweet heart! I had to (being the mean mommy) take pictures of it. So, some of the pics you see are from today (Oct. 7th).








We also took pictures of Truett in his Halloween costume on his 8 month birthday. He will be a scarecrow from the Wizard of Oz. He has been standing so good and walking around the coffee table, I guess a bump and fall are to be expected but you never want to see it (or hear it) happen! I know all moms experience this.... thanks for letting me share!
