Jack is 8 months old

Soon we will be thinking about birthday parties!  Jack is 8 months and lots of fun!  He continues to be the happiest baby ever,  always smiling and laughing.  I think that has a lot to do with his funny big sister,  who is very entertaining! If his smile is big enough,  you can see two little dimples right up high on his cheeks,  almost under his eyes.
Jack moves around on his belly more now.  He can't crawl yet (I think he wishes he could,  he becomes frustrated now when he sees a toy he can't get). He slides easily on our wooden floors which he seems to enjoy doing.
I've just dropped him down from 3 naps to 2 in the last few days.  The third nap was becoming harder and harder to squeeze in and he seems happy to be awake for up to 3 hours.
He is forever eating!  I still breastfeed him about 4 times a day and he has 3 solid meals a day and sometimes an extra snack. He then has a bottle before bed and 1-2 feeds overnight. Hungry boy!
He enjoys more finger foods now including cheese,  bread,  cooked vegetables,  meatballs,  biscuits and banana.  His pincer grip is improving which makes self-feeding easier. I also spoon-fed him pureed food to satisfy his hunger.
We are still working on clapping hands.  I think it was a fluke when he did it on video! 
He likes being on his belly most of all,  and exploring his surrounds.  Amy keeps him very entertained and loves to bring him toys. He kicks his legs when he is very excited and squeals with delight when he is enjoying himself. He seems happy when peppa pig comes on TV.  Tonight he was sitting on the rug,  staring up at the light.  He raised his hand towards the light and observed it for quite some time.
Lately he has only needed one feed in the night.  But it's always changing so I just go with the flow. 
We hope to get a place at day care for him in about 2 months time as I return to work in early October.
Jack has 2 beautiful little white teeth and I'm sure more will be on the way soon.  He likes to put everything in his mouth. He has quite an interest in books and enjoys story time with Amy before bed.
