Eight Months Old
You’ve been busy growing up this month! You got your first tooth (bottom right) on April 15th and your second tooth (bottom left) on April 27th. You’ve started eating Cheerios and puffs and love feeding yourself. You can now hold your bottle on your own and have started drinking from a trainer sippy cup. You’ve been a rolling machine, like to push yourself up on your arms and giggle like crazy when your daddy whistles!
This month you had your very first Easter. You looked precious in your Easter dress! Even though you also had your very first cold, you were a total trooper. Your Easter basket was full of lots of fun goodies. Your favorites were a new toy remote control (which you love!), new books and decorative glitter eggs. You tried really hard to share your glitter eggs with Lucy. Such a sweet little girl!
Nine Months Old
This month, you’ve been a mover and a shaker! You simply will not stay still when we are changing your clothes or diapers. You love swinging at the park, rocking on your rocking horse and being tossed into the air. You went on your first trip to the Art Institute with daddy and had a great time. Dad said you were the star of the museum! You stopped by the Bean twice for a couple family photos and you got your very first swimming pool. You really like playing “This little piggy”, have been working hard on saying “meow” and love Star and Nina, Chica and Bubble Guppies (in small doses of course!). Bananas are quickly becoming one of your favorites and you liked yogurt and Goldfish from the get-go.
It was time for another pediatrician check-up this month. You weighed 19 lbs 12 oz putting you in the 60% for weight and you’re now 31” tall, which is still above the 95% for height. How in the world are you already 31”tall?! We had to move you out of your infant car seat and into your big girl convertible car seat. You love looking out the window of the car and chewing on the strap of your new seat. Silly goose!
