8 is GREAT!! WOW

Taking pictures with Dylan and the bear is a difficult task.  So….we just tried our best!
At 8 months Dylan is:
  • wearing size 3 diapers
  • wearing 6-9 months clothes
  • weighing about 17 lbs (just a guess)
  • eating 3 meals a day
    • Breakfast:  5 ounce bottle followed by cereal and about a TBsp of a fruit (still doesn’t love fruit)
    • Mid-morning:  6-7 ounces of formula
    • Lunch:  1 jar of veggie and water from a sippy cup (we are trying hard)
    • Mid-Afternoon:  6-7 ounce bottle
    • Supper:  Cereal and 1/2-1 jar of veggie followed by 4-5 ounces of formula (usually about 30 minutes after eating)
    • Night:  7 ounces of formula
  • sleeping from 8 p.m until around 7:30 a.m
  • Naps:  9 am, 12:30, and 4----these naps usually last about 1 1/2 hours, sometimes 2!
  • ACTIVE, ACTIVE, ACTIVE!!   Dylan is everywhere.  He is crawling and pulling up.  He loves to stand-up.  He sits unassisted and plays with his toys until he moves on to something else.
  • Talking:  He says, “Hey” and “Mama” (this happened today!!  I am so excited).  He also says “abah,” which I think means “bottle.”
  • He loves taking a bath and has recently started taking a bath in the big tub.
  • He has his 2 bottom teeth!
  • We have enjoyed our time together this summer he has:
    • experienced a swimming pool
    • played in his own kiddie pool
    • visited with family
    • went to lunch with friends
    • had a shopping trip to Commerce
    • had his picture drawn at the pre-fourth
    • at refried beans at LaCabana
    • Had Cheetos (his favorite)
    • tasted banana pudding (his Grammy spoils him)
    • celebrated Father’s Day
    • and played, played, played
