I must say that was a very fast month. I blinked and the next thing I knew Abby turned 8 months old. She is a little lady full of personality, smiles, and showing off her electric blue eyes.
She is a busy girl and wants to be active at all times of the day. We love our sweet Abbylicious!
What Miss Abigail is doing at 8 months:
-Eating between 4 and 5 bottles a day and taking about two full jars of food a day.
-Loves most purees, except green beans. We are still staying away from gluten b/c she has a tendency to throw up if she eats it.
-Wearing 9 month clothes and a size three diaper.
-We think she weighs around 20 lbs. (according to my parent's scale).
-Loves to grab at whatever she can, and if something is out of reach she will stretch that little body to get it.
-Everything seems to go into her mouth so we have to be extra careful with what is around her.
-Emma and her love to take each others toys.
-Loves to be a book thief. If you are reading a book she wants to take it away and eat it.
-Enjoys drumming on the table or a pillow.
-Wants to be part of the group at all times.
-Claps her toys together.
-Can make the sign for "more" but we don't think she knows what is means, yet.
-Is learning to wave.
-Can role over from front to back.
-Hates tummy time but is thankful she can get out of it with her rolling.
-Still goes to P.T. once a week to help her neck and shoulders get stronger.
-Loves to be rocked to sleep at night by her daddy.
-Takes 2 naps a day and goes to bed around 7.
-Loves to smile at everyone.
-Enjoys being loud and making lots of noises.
-Loves to play peek-a-boo, especially when she gets her diaper changed.
-Curious about everything.
-A sweet, easy going, loving baby.
Here are some pictures of her on her 8 month birthday. She was refusing to smile for me. I think she was wondering why she had to sit in a chair with nothing to do.
Finally a smile!
