8 Month



Weight: 18 lb 8 oz according to my home scale

Eating:  We're almost down to 3 meals per day. This past weekend I tried it out and it worked pretty well. So no more early bottle or nighttime bottle!

Bedtime: Still shooting for 7:30, but this weekend we experimented with staying up until 7:45-8:00. He slept in until 7:15 on Saturday, and I guess we'll see if it worked again tomorrow. 

Awake: He struggled with the time change; especially with me being on vacation. But since I've been home, we're back to the normal 6:30ish. This weekend he slept until 7:15 though.  

Naps: Getting a shorter morning nap, but a pretty long afternoon nap! Love it! So much better than the cat naps he used to like so much. 


Diapers: Next box I buy will be 4s. For now, he's technically still in 3s. At this point with Emi, my post says we had just moved up to 3s!

Clothes: 9-12 if it's a one piece. If I buy anything new, it's 12 month. He's tall and skinny so pants are still hard like Emi!

Favorites: He started crawling so he only likes to be on the move.
He loves his walker car and is doing much better at maneuvering in it. 

He loves his mommy! Especially since she left for 10 days.
He loves eating finger foods. 

Dislikes: Still hates socks. Since the weather got cooler, that's making getting dressed more difficult.
He hates to be laid down on the diaper changer. 

He hates not being able to move. Being held is not his favorite, unless you're moving with him. 


Latest accomplishment: This was a big month for him. He started army crawling. He got his 2 bottom teeth. He started sitting up so he sits in the big boy high chair, can ride in the grocery cart, and no longer needs the infant bath insert! He also started clapping.
