Grace AnneMarie – 8 Months
Sleeping – Nighttime
sleep continues to go well with no significant interruptions. We are firmly on 2 naps now, the first one
around 9:45-10 until noon and the second starting around 2. I would like to say she sleeps for 2 hours
for that one but usually is 45 minutes to 1 ½ hours but she stays in her room
until 4 and is usually okay with that.
For most of this month we’ve been travelling so she has taken a ton of
carseat naps both in and out of the car.
She is a trooper though and only after 3 days of all day driving did she
really have a melt down; one good night of sleep though and she was back to her
happy self again.
Eating – Nursing
still 3 to 4 times a day with the DF milk given at the 7pm feeding. New solids this month include cauliflower,
apricots (the best first fruit for her yet!), blueberries, and fish. She found a love for avocado this month when
I gave it to her not mushed up.
Skills – While
not crawling she is certainly no long stationary. She skootches around within about a 3 ft
diameter circle going after things she wants or just moving for the sake of
doing it. She continues to be incredibly
vocal but really only knows the Da sound, a sort of singing sound, and the
cutest little cooing. She is rolling onto
her tummy consistently and then belly crawling backwards. She has started playing peek-a-boo and loving
it! Grace also enjoys throwing herself
backwards while in our arms. There have
been a few times we weren’t ready for it but no real mishaps J
