8 Months Old


Age: 8 Months

Weight: I'm guessing about 17 pounds. We go back to the doctor in August so I will know an exact weight then.

Height: no clue

Size: Size 3 diapers. 6-12 month clothes.

Hair: She's still a bald baby, but she has a very tan head since she refuses to wear a hat.

Sleeping: She sleeps 8-5:30, eats, and sleeps til 7 on most days. Then she takes two naps that are 1-2 hours each. Sometimes we can sneak a third in, too. She slept great in her pack n play while on vacation. That was a huge relief.

Eating: Hailey eats 3 meals of purees a day and nurses every 3-5 hours. We have also started puffs (like cheerios) for snacks. She loves them. We are excited she's able to eat "real" food because we can keep her entertained while in public. Hailey LOVES ice cream, but doesn't get it that often. When someone is eating around her she watches them very carefully and smacks her lips if she wants some.

Movement: Hailey is rolling around, but not to get to something she wants. She walks when holding onto our hands and smiles the whole time.

Milestones: Hailey has two new teeth. She is every proud of them. She loves getting her teeth brushed.

Favorite toys/activities: Hailey loves swimming, snacking, getting her teeth brushed, and playing with her mom and dad. She also loves looking at men. I catch her smiling at them even when they aren't looking.

Dislikes: Hailey doesn't like being left alone and sometime naptime is a bit of a struggle, but other than that, she's a very happy baby.
