On May 29, 2012 Harper turned 8 Months old!!!!
{we were on vacay, so this post is a few days late}
My sweet baby girl is seriously growing too fast! But it has been so fun! I think each month I say it's been my favorite month, but it is just so neat to watch my sweet baby develop, grow, and explore!
Weight: not sure - we don't go to doc. till 9 months, but we are thinking around 18 lbs
Diapers: size 2 Pampers, size 3 Nighttime Pampers at night
Food: Harper LOVES to eat!!! Is she her parent's child or what?! She will eat anything we give her, but she especially loves: peas, corn, sweet potatoes, macaroni & cheese puree, and pear/banana/apple blend. She also loves Gerber Puffs. We do yellow foods M/W/F/S and green foods T/TH/Saturday.
Sleep: Harper currently naps 3 times a day, but we are hoping to transition to 2. She goes to sleep around 8:00 and I usually get her up around 6:30...but now that I am not working, we are hoping she will sleep until 7 or later like she does on the weekends.
Bottle: She still loves her bottle. She drinks around 26-28 oz. a day. She is still on Alimentum. We've tried other kinds, but they just don't settle with her. She also LOVES water. She loves drinking out of a soft sippy cup or a straw sippy cup.
Clothes: mostly 6-9 months, wears hats without a problem, beginning to pull on bows!!

Oh my heck, she is seriously precious!! It is crazy how time flies and they grow SO fast!
ReplyDeleteShe had a busy month! I really like your idea of different color foods for different days, I had never thought of that before. The pictures are great, but they sure are hard to work through as they get older!
ReplyDeleteI wish I could get these two girls together! It's so fun to get babies together to play. She is a cutie! Emily started pulling off her bows and hats too!!
