Caleb- 8 months

-Weight: not sure

-Length: about 27"

-Diapers: size 2

 

-Clothes: mainly 6-9 month clothes although the pants are too long. I've tried some of the 6-12 month size from GAP and Old Navy but they are super big!

 

- Sleeping:

Daytime: morning naps are pretty irregular. If we are home, he will nap an hour to hour and a half. If we go out in the morning to Stroller Strides or to take Caiden to school, he will usually fall asleep in the car and take a shorter nap. He will usually take a decent nap in the afternoon, but I have yet to get him and Caiden on the same schedule :( Caleb is usually waking up just after Caiden goes down.

Nighttime sleep is still the same 6:30pm- 6am. About half the nights he will wake up once to nurse, and half the nights he will sleep through.

 

-Eating: He's eating cereal with a fruit for breakfast, a fruit or vegetable for lunch and cereal with a vegetable and now a protein for dinner. New foods this month were: apricot, papaya, blueberry, zucchini, white potato, cauliflower, chicken and beef.  He is still nursing about 6 times a day as well.

 

New milestones:

• Still army crawling- but he's really fast now
• He's taking baths in the big bathtub!

• He's eating morefinger foods: puffs, yogurt melts, freeze-dried fruit

• He is pulling up!  Way too soon for this- please slow down little guy, you're supposed to be my BABY!

Other notes:

 

• We lowered his crib since he started pulling up.
• He went to the nursery at church for the first time during my ladies Bible study.
• He's getting really interested in toys! It's interesting to see him try to play with Caiden's toys.
• He is such a happy baby! He loves being able to crawl and play and explore. He wants to be wherever Caiden is, and play with his toys of course. We have to be careful because he wants to put everything in his mouth, so we really have to watch what is on the floor.
• He was dedicated at our church on January 9.

As he's growing:
