8 Months


Sleep:  I think it's better.  Sometimes I sleep through her waking and Tim get up and gives her a pacifier.  Sometimes I hear hear and turn off the monitor.  She goes to bed around 7 and we get her up for the day around 7:15.  Every morning between 5:30-6:15 she wakes and Tim gives her back her pacifier.  She takes 2 naps at 9:30 and 1:30.

Food:  Nothing has really changed since last month, but we have given her more "real" food.  She loves everything so far, but so did my other now picky kids at this age.  She's quite good at picking up food and feeding herself.

Play:  She loves stealing toys from her siblings and putting everything in her mouth.  She loves playing peek-a-boo and laughing at you.  She makes a lot of sounds and loves to screech.

Movement:  She's getting pretty close to crawling and has the longest reach you can imagine.  If she has a wall or couch to push up against she can get into a sitting position from her stomach.  She's quite proud of herself when she does that!  I've caught her trying to clap once or twice, but she's not consistent yet.

Size:  On our scale at home she's 20lbs.  She wearing 6-12m with room for growth.  9m pants are starting to get too short.  She can still wear 3-6m shoes, but they're pretty tight(I need them for Christmas outfits, so she just needs to stay the same for one more week!).  I started giving her the 6+ pacifiers, but she still uses the 2+ more often.  She wears size 3 diapers.  Still no teeth.
