Eight Months

Emery is now 8 months old. I am so in love with this little girl. She is absolutely crazy, but Eric and I wouldn’t want her any other way. She has so much personality and is so spunky!

Milestones this month:

Along with army crawling she can now real crawl. She still prefers to army crawl because she is so much faster but about half the time she is really crawling.

Learned to pull herself to the standing position. She pulls herself up to everything? She is starting to become more stable but is still a little wobbly.

She is also starting to cruise along the furniture.

Emery also learned how to put herself into the sitting position from her tummy.

She is getting 4 more teeth. She has 4 right now that have broken through and her 2 front teeth are almost there and then her k9’s on the top as well. She has been a little fussy while this has been going.

Emery is sleeping so much better! Most of the time she sleeps all night but she still has a few nights where she cries for an hour or two.

Emery is not the best eater. She goes through phases where she eats well for a week or so and then hates it again. She actually really likes fruit but even that is hard to get her to eat.
She loves to imitate noises that we make. She thinks is so funny.

Emery Loves:

To feed herself. She loves puffs and cheddar baby Cheetos. She gets so excited when she sees me pull them out and can’t wait for more when she runs out
Her silky and binky. She really is completely obsessed.
Maddix. She mauls him all day long and he just loves it! She follows him around and wants to be playing with whatever he has.
To be noisy. She is constantly jabbering and screaming. She is starting to say mama, mama, but I’m sure it’s not referring to me
The bath! We have been bathing her in the sink and she loves that she can splash and play with the running water.
Her walker. She loves that she can be mobile and run all over the house. She can maneuver it anywhere and can even go on the carpet.

Emery Hates:

Getting dressed. She still screams whenever something goes over her head.
Being left alone. If I leave the room she crawls so fast to get to wherever I’ve gone.
Taking medicine.








We Love you Emery!

She is a doll! I can't believe she is already 8 months! Sounds like she will be walking soon. I have heard many stories of babies walking by 9 months. Kenna wasnt even cruising along furniture until she was 1. Oh and I love the sink picture of both kids. So cute. Isnt it so fun having a boy and girl and seeing them as little buddies together?!
