Henry Christopher- 8 Months Old
Our little boy is developing such a fun and happy personality! He is just adorable and it's great to see him grow into his own little person. He adores his big brother and daddy and will whip his head around to watch either of them if they are in the room. He loves to listen to Tommy, but every now and then he has something to say and he isn't shy about telling his stories as loudly as possible. He is so happy and just sort of "goes with the flow" most of the time. He has such a great laugh and smile and it's so fun to listen to him wake up in the morning- he just babbles to himself in his crib. We love our little Henry-bean!
Henry's unofficial weight at 8 months is 18lbs. (which is less than his unofficial weight a month ago- so somewhere my 'unofficial' method is off!)
What is Henry up to at 8 months?
He sleeps from 7pm- 7:15am every night. He goes to bed without any fuss and sleeps all night!
He drinks about 24-32oz of formula a day and eats 3 meals of solids. At each meal he has 2 containers of baby food or a bowl of cereal and a container of baby food.
He's moved on to stage 2 baby foods and even tried puffs- his first finger food. He loves bananas, prunes, apples, sweet potatoes, and squash. He hates peaches and the garden veggie mix. He has started spitting the food everywhere and then laughing when he eats. The more upset I get about it the harder he laughs :)
He naps from 9:30am-11am and then again from 1:30pm- 4pm. He has dropped the 3rd nap.
He is still in size 3 diapers and 12 month clothing. He still fits in some 6-12 month clothes, but he is starting to wear more of his 12-18 month stuff.
He rolls and sits. He can't get into the sitting position on his own yet. He is so close to scooting and can get up onto his knees when he is laying on the floor, but hasn't gotten anywhere yet!
He is starting to clap and has waved 'bye-bye' once or twice. He loves to play so big and pat-a-cake. He enjoys the excersaucer and loves nothing more than sitting on the floor with a big pile of toys! He says "da-da-da," "ma-ma-ma," and "ba-ba-ba."
He still has just the bottom two teeth.
