Callie at 8 Months

Age: 8 months

Weight: 16.6 lbs

Height: 25 inches

Head:????

Clothing: She is wearing 6 months, and but I think she might be going into 9 months soon. She has moved up into size 3 diapers, but they are a little big on her.

Sleeping: Still sucks!!! She dropped her evening nap, so if I am lucky she takes two naps a day, one at 9:00 and the other at 1:30. Since she dropped her evening nap her bedtime has been pushed up, so she is going down around 8:00 every night. Than she is usually up at 12:30, 2:30, 4:30, and up for the day at 6:30.

Eating Habits: Miss Callie is eating fruit and oatmeal for breakfast followed by a bottle, than a 4 oz bottle every 2-3 hours of so. She refuses to drink more than 4 oz. at a time, so she eats quite frequently. Than for dinner she eats another 4 oz. of fruit and veggies.We have also started giving her small bites of bread, pancakes, etc. I think we might start puffs in the next week or so.

Favorite Activity: Attempting to crawl around the floor. She more or less slither around on her stomach. She is still fascinated with Austin and loves getting into all his toys. She would rather play with his cars and trucks than her baby dolls and rattles.

Milestones: She said her first word, Mama a few weeks ago. She calls Michael, Austin, and Mommy Mama!!! Every time she sees one of us, she starts saying Mama, Mama, over and over again. She is getting her first tooth, it hasn't come through yet but I can feel it. She is also working on crawling, she just can't her knees under her.

Updates: Callie is now sleeping in her crib. Now I should clarify, he crib is currently in our room since she is not sleeping through the night, but she is sleeping in it. Surprisingly she is doing a lot better in it than we thought she would. She has also been suffering from a nasty cold. Which has left us all extremely tired and feeling extremely helpless. We are also gearing up for a trip to California to see my family and introduce Callie to everyone.

These pictures didn't turn out that great since she is still sick.
