Madelyn Faye | Month 8

You would not sit still for your 8 month pictures and kept grabbing at your sticker!!

Weight:  

I would guess 20lbs.  We will go back to doc at 9 months.  

Clothes:

Sleep:  

Sleep has been good. You pretty much sleep from about 6:30 or 7pm to about 6 or 630am.  Your naps are great.  You typically have been taking a good morning nap around 2 hours and then only about an hour nap in the afternoon.

Health:

Crying:  

You cry getting out of the tub still while I'm putting your jammies on.  You also cry now when you fall over because you are pulling up on everything. You cry when your Mom leaves the room or if someone else is holding you and you hear Mom's voice. You are a serious Mama's girl!! 

Feeding: 

You are eating three meals a day now.  You are loving all different combinations of food right now.  Sweet potatoes, corn and apple definitely seem to be your favorites.  You are loving carrots, kale, chickpeas, cauliflower, green beans, and butternut squash too.
