8 Months

Stephen is 8 months old! I can't believe how fast time goes by! I can't believe in just 4 months we will have a 1 year old!! I am treasuring each and every day with my baby boy! This month he seemed like he has grown so much. He just seems so much bigger to me and is losing some of his "baby" features.

I am still working on his 8 month pictures, but will come back and add them.

* He weighs 20 pounds

* He wears 6-9 or 6-12 month clothes. This month he has gotten longer, but thinned out a little everywhere else.

* He drinks 6 ounces of formula 5 times a day and eats 3 ounces of solids 3 times a day.

* I make all of his baby food. This month we added yogurt, which he LOVES, and apples.

*We are still using cloth diapers and loving it!

*He is a great sleeper. At night he sleeps from 8 pm until 7 am.

* He takes 2 naps for about an hour and a half to 2 hours each day plus a little catnap in the evening. He has been having a hard time napping lately though.

* He is always on the move, but also content just being still. He will find a toy and just sit and play with it for a while. And by play I mean eat! Everything goes into his mouth!

* He loves bath time!

* He wants to crawl on his knees SO bad! He will get up on his knees to go crawl somewhere and rock for a while and then just fall down and army crawl. Lately he has been stopping half way and getting back up on his knees and rocking. He will get it one day!

* He is doing better with changing his clothes. Instead of laying him on his back, we now sit him up and he will reach his arms up when you take his shirt off. It's so cute!

*He is such a happy, fun baby!

Happy 8 month birthday Stephen! We love you so much!
