8 months old!

June 2nd means Finn is 8 months old!
Here are his side by side pictures.

7 months old

8 months old

He currently weighs:
8.8 kilos
or 19 lbs 6 oz
or 1 stone 5 lbs
depending on your preference.

I don't know how long he is, I didn't check.

He has four full teeth, his fifth broke through a couple days ago and his sixth will be out within the week, I think. (Seriously - I don't think Finn has stopped teething for the past 4 months... )

He's starting to get a lot more hair, though it is so fair and fine you barely notice it!

He has started to "zombie crawl" as I call it.  Basically pulling himself along the ground like a zombie coming out of a grave...
Here's a video:

 
The zombie theme continues in his new habit of giving "kisses" which are actually open-mouthed slobber attacks.  With all his teeth, however, it really feels like he's trying to chew on your face... like a zombie.

And I don't know if Zombies ever made exercise videos, but Finn does that too - with this strange hip thrust move:

What else? He LOVES his mirror and can talk to the 'other baby' for ages:

He's learning to drink from a sippy-cup:

He adores all things that make noise, and has many musical instruments, which he sometimes uses to accompany himself as he "sings"

As a side note, we all went down to see the flotilla on the Thames in honour of the Queen's Diamond Jubilee.  There were lots of people so we watched some of it in the reflection of a building (an excellent view!) but were able to see the important bits in person - ie: the Queen!!!  We were quite lucky to be near the beginning as it only started to rain on our walk home.  Which meant we still got soaked but it was all part of the adventure and at least we weren't just standing around in it!

I can't think of much else to update - so here are some funny pictures to leave you with!!
