A Little of March...before it's April

I can't believe that March is almost over...it has gone by so stinkin fast! Paxton is 8 months old now. He hasn't changed much in weight (18 pounds 6 ounces) or height (27 inches) but he has changed alot in other ways...he is growing up so fast!
He is rolling and army crawling all over our house. He is apparently done with baby toys and wants to play with new things big boy things. He is finally starting to eat better!! I know this sounds crazy but I am 99% convinced that he wouldn't eat because of the stupid bib. The minute I gave in and just let him make a little mess he decided to eat like a champ. Pax has 6 teeth now (4 on top and 2 on the bottom) and they are the cutest crookedest things you have ever seen!
He has also gone through a very very bad phase this month...the I like everyone except my mother phase. He would cry when I tried to take him away from people, even the babysitter, and then look at me and cry even harder. When we were home he only wanted to be with Andy...nothing to do with me it was all Andy all the time. Luckily I think we are past that stage!
I tried to do a St. Patrick's Day photo shoot...but my child is mobile now and just will not sit still like he used to but what do you do he is still so dang cute!
We got to make a trip to Richfield this weekend...for Jake's Prom of course! It is our last official Richfield High School Prom after 7 kids...so sad!
Paxton apparently didn't enjoy Prom as much as the rest of us...maybe it was the choreographed dance with all the prom couples, the introduction of the couples, the slide show, or maybe it was the mother son dance that got to him...I just don't know. He may not of enjoyed it but were sure did!
We also finally figured out that Paxton's runny nose (since November) and hacking cough (for a month) is caused by allergies and asthma. Thanks to a little Zyrtec everyday he is finally getting back to his normal self!!

Hey! How did they determine that he had asthma and allergies? I've been wondering if Thomas might have the same problem so I'm curious...

Man, those Richfield proms! Most people I tell about it can't believe that prom is a family affair down there. Good times.
