8 Months Old



Happy 8 months baby girl!  You are changing every single day.  You are becoming more active and no longer want to stay in one spot.  You aren't crawling yet, but I know it will happen soon.  You get into the crawling position, but land flat on your tummy.  You start moving those little legs and feet wanting to go!  You do, however, roll to where you want to go.

You just started eating solids (puree) food on Tuesday, February 18th.  You shocked mommy completely.  You gobbled up some butternut squash.  Since then you've had yogurt, sweet potato, blueberries, oatmeal and avocado.  You take a few bites, but that's okay,

You cut your first tooth just yesterday.  You won't let me take a good look at it, but I know I will see that pearly white real soon.

I love how you study everything you get your hands on.  You won't put foreign objects in your mouth.  You hold on to it and look at it thoroughly.  

You are a thinker.  Just the other day you were playing on the floor while I was having breakfast and you wanted to come to me.  There was a lid to your box bucket that was in the way so you moved it then fell over and started rolling.  Took me by surprise.  

You love to hold things.  Holding something makes you feel secure.  Whether its your hippo teething ring, your small bath cloth, small ball, my fingers.  

You never took a paci or sucked your thumb, but you love your feet.  If you are crying when you wake from your nap, you are holding you foot when I come into the room.  You will hold your foot while you are in the car seat when you are mad at being stuck there.

You were saying "mamama" for several weeks but have stopped.  You do go "hmmm" all the time.

You love to sleep! You are the greatest little sleeper and I am SO THANKFUL!  You love to sleep on your side.  Maybe because that was how I positioned you when you were a newborn.

You love your Baby Einstein activity table!  As soon as you wake in the morning, you cry wanting to play.  I just leave you there for 15 minutes and you are good to go.

You love being outside.  Being outside calms you if you are too fussy.  I take you out and you stop immediately.

You can pull up holding onto a broom stick or mommy/daddy hands.  If you are sitting in my lap, you can pull up on your sit-n-stand toy.  You are getting there.

You love to be held by mommy.  If I sit you down for a minute or if daddy holds you, you cry.  You want mommy all the time.  We are BFF's!

You don't like when I'm out of your site.  Its a total cry fest.  

You don't like having baths in the morning.

You get mad when you can't do something.  You just give up.  I try to push you a little.

You hate having your diaper changed.  You roll all over the place.

-----------

You are turning into an even more beautiful little girl.  I still can't believe you are 8 months old!  You are the light of mommy and daddy's life.  I can't imagine life without you sweet one!  Love you to the moon and back!
