AT EIGHT MONTHS…
- Sawyer is still a champ sleeper. She sleeps around 12 hours at night and takes anywhere from 1 to 3 naps a day.
- She is pretty mobile even without crawling. She rolls all around and can even scoot a little to get whatever toy she wants.
- Sawyer has gotten to wear she can lean down while she is in the sitting position and then get back up straight on her own. She really enjoys sitting on a blanket on the floor to play.
- She likes to play with paper! Any paper - receipts are her favorite though. This is sometimes what we give her when we are out to eat. She likes a good straw wrapper. :)
- Sawyer grabs at everything! She pulls ornaments off of the Christmas tree, pulls my hair (I have stopped wearing earrings), grabs my sunglasses, etc. She is super curious and loves everything her hand's touch!
- She is still liking baby food. We have had pretty much all of the fruits and vegetables now and will start on meats soon.
- Sawyer takes about 5 bottles a day, but now some of them are 8 oz. instead of the regular 6 oz.
- She likes to eat puffs and we use these as a good way to keep her distracted while we eat dinner ourselves. :)
- Sawyer has 4 teeth!!! She has her 2 middle, bottom teeth as well as her two middle, top teeth! She can bite pretty hard, too, but only if you stick your finger in her mouth. I guess we need stop that or she will think biting is okay. It's just so funny right now though!
- Sawyer's age and clothing are starting to catch up! For the first time she is actually able to wear some clothing in her age range. For the most part she is in 6 month clothing, with some 3-6 month and a few 6-9 month!
- She still has tiny feet. Her newborn shoes all still fit and she has a few size ones and twos that she wears occasionally, but they are a little too big for her still.
- She is still wearing size 1 diapers! She just has the tiniest waist so they still fit her really well…
- Sawyer has started LOVING bath time even more than she use to! She splashes water like crazy and loves to play with her rubber bath animals!
- Sawyer can say 3 words (babble words, but still!): bye-bye, ma-ma, and da-da. She says 'bye-bye' all the time and over and over. We are working on the wave to go with it! :)
- Sawyer met Santa this month and loved looking at him. She even pulled his beard! She didn't cry (I knew she wouldn't). She is super friendly and loves people.
- I love her sweet little spirit. She is a happy baby and I know I am lucky to have such a good-mannered girl!
Sawyer's Weight Progression:
7 months - 14 lbs 8 oz
8 months - 15 lbs 4 oz
Here is my sweet 8-month old girl!
Love, love, love you, Sawyer! You are so stinkin' fun!
