Life with Sophia and Addison: 8 Months!

8 Months!

Our sweet Addison is 8 months old! To say time is going by quickly is an understatement...it is even worse this time around since I have two kids to chase around. We don't have an appt this month so I don't know her height or weight. I think she is about 20 pounds. A lot has happened with Addison this month!

She became a sitter this month!
She is quite a mover and can get all over the room by rolling and scooting but cannot crawl yet. At the very end this month I noticed she was lifting her belly up and getting on all fours, so she is getting a little closer. I can't believe she is almost mobile!!
Takes 4 bottles a day (transitioned to formula towards the end of this month) and 3 solid meals a day. We have introduced puffs, Gerber cookies and yogurt melts and mum mums. She does okay but not great. Still not quite ready for table foods.
She got her first 2 bottom teeth at the beginning of this month...right about the same time. It was a rough week but we are back to being a happy girl!
She has become extremely vocal the last month. Loves to scream and hear herself talk.
Wears size 3 diapers and size 12 month clothes.
She started sleeping through the night towards the middle of this month!! Hallelujah! She normally goes down between 8:15/8:30 and wakes up between 7:30/8am. She also takes a short morning nap, long afternoon nap, and sometimes a short nap around 7pm after dinner.
She is our happy girl...she is generally just very happy and smiley. She loves to play on the floor with her toys and still likes playing in her bouncer and exersaucer. She has the sweetest laugh.
Whenever she sees her daddy walk through the door her face lights up...it is precious! She pretty much smiles at him throughout dinner.
Addison no longer likes to have her diaper changed...boo!
