8 Months

Sydney - You are EIGHT months old!!! 

You weigh 16 lbs.

You are wearing 9 -12 month clothes.

You wear size 2 diapers during the day and size 3 at night. 

You wake between 7:30-8am.  You drink a bottle and eat some fruit with cereal.   You take another 6oz bottle at 10am.  You take a morning nap in the car, on the go or sometimes at home.  You eat a fruit or veggie and a 6oz bottle.  You take and afternoon nape around 2pm-5ish.  You eat dinner - a veggie and some of whatever we are having to dinner.  You then take your last bottle around 7pm.  

You are a great eater.  You are eating all stage 2 foods and you eat everything we feed you.  You love bananas, carrots, peaches, sweet potatoes, squash and pears in baby food.  You have started eating some real food.  You love cheerios and puffs and yogurt melts.  

You are so content and such a happy and sweet baby.  You love to watch whatever is going on around you and don't want to miss anything.  

You sit up great unassisted.  You don't need the bobby or a pillow behind you anymore.  

You have the sweetest personality and so loving.  You love for me or daddy to hold you.  You hold your sweet little hands up for me to pick you up.  

You love when I sing and play songs with you.  You smile so big and laugh.  You love singing and dancing.  

You take two daily naps.  You take a 30-60 min nap in the morning (depending on if we are at home or on the go) and a good 2-3 hour afternoon nap.  You go to bed at 7pm and sleep great through the night.  I am SO thankful you are a great sleeper.  

You still just have two cute little bottom teeth.  

You are pretty easy to take places.  You sleep great in the car, thank goodness, and pretty content being toted around everywhere.  

Your brothers love to talk and play with you.  They are so sweet with you and I love watching them interact with you.  

 I can hardly believe that you are already 8 months old.  Time is just flying by.  I want to soak you in ever day.  It's true what they say, "babies don't keep".  I just want to snuggle you all day and stop time.  

You are doing new stuff every day.   You are the sweetest baby girl and you bring us so much joy!  We love you so much and are crazy about you.
