You're a noisy little thing. Mumumumum and various others noises - shouts too. No Dadadadad yet but we're hopeful.
You sit nice and strong, have done from the start really. Rarely lose balance and fall sideways or backwards. You're not crawling (don't seem fussed on trying, would rather sit) but you LOVE to stand. Holding onto Granny, Daddy or me or the closest item of furniture. You don't pull yourself up yet but you experiment with letting go with one or both hands.
You really enjoy your food. You try anything, I don't think there's much you don't like. Fresh tomatoes make your eczema react, I think it's the juice being in direct contact with your skin. You're fine if its in bolognese or similar. You have toast and marmalade and some fruit for breakfast and then minced whatever we've eaten for lunch and dinner. Plenty of fruit and veg. You love raisins and sultanas. You also love cake, on the occasion we share it with you. Not really a surprise... Same goes for ice cream...
You've weaned yourself down to two milk feeds a day, when you wake and before bed. You sleep through now, 7.30-8 to 7.30-8.
You love being outside - walks in your baby carrier on my or Daddy's front or in your pushchair. You love the dogs and the chickens, it makes you giggle when they lick your ears. The dogs that is, not the chickens.
Today, I had my apt with the Mother and Baby clinic (I'm doing super well) and then we had a cuppa in Sainsburys. You had a bit of Granny and my Belgian bun and we tried you with a straw for the first time on the off chance. You chewed the straw first but got the hang of sucking really quickly and finished off the carton of innocent smoothie!! That's really quite advanced for eight months. Clever girl!
