Normally she wouldn't have had an 8 month doctor's appointment but we needed to get the flu booster and have her eye checked out. So, I can confirm Liv weighs 19 lbs 9 oz.
Diapers: She is wearing size 3 diapers but I just recently bought size 4, so when we run out we are moving on up.
Clothes: Most of her closet is comprised of Carter's outfits which are currently 9 months. But she also wears Circo from Target in 12 months. Circo has such adorable outfits and for cheap just make sure you size up.
Food: Apparently this weekend Liv decided she was done with baby food after having real table food. She turns her head away from me each time I try baby teething wafers, which she use to love, or any pureed food. So she has been eating bite-sized portions of whatever we are eating for breakfast, lunch and dinner. In addition, she is still taking a bottle throughout the day.
Words: Mom & Ba are her only decipherable words as of now. She babbles alot all day long too.
Movement: She is getting very efficient at walking with her walker. Constantly standing. Prior to 8 months, she would kneel on one knee and put her hands up to be picked up like a prairie dog. Now, she will climb up your legs to stand. She will wave at family in response to a wave or when you say hello or goodbye. The crab crawl seems to be phasing out b/c she can crawl normally much faster. She will clap her hands when happy, music is playing or is excited about something she did and just started blowing kisses.
Play: Anything musical still excites her. We keep toddler tunes on the TV all day long. She is fascinated with baby faces. Anything she should not have, seems to have a magnetic attraction for her. Who needs toys when you have empty boxes, shoes, belts & exercise rollers?
Teeth: I would say 2.5 teeth. The top tooth has poked through but not dropped yet. I can only see a small white portion sticking out of her gum.
Sleep: Ever since I started putting one of my worn t-shirts in her crib, she has begun sleeping again. Some nights she wakes up for a 4:30am feeding and others she will sleep until 7am. Either way I am a happy mama yet again. Anything is better than up 4x a night. Nap time is either one 2H+ nap or a morning & afternoon 45 min snooze.
