8 months old, anothor big month for me

I'm eight months old today. Momma said I don't have to go see Dr. Ware today. I weight 19lbs 6oz which Momma and Daddy were pretty excited about. They say I've really started putting on the weight now with eating more solid food. I am 28 3/4 inches long.

This month Momma and Daddy were so excited when I put my knees up under me and lifted my belly off the ground.



Also Momma took these before and after photos (15 minutes) to show that nothing is really out of reach for me anymore. If I'm sitting I just scoot forward by rocking back and forth, and if I'm lying down I roll or push backwards to get around.
 







Daddy also was excited to see me holding my bottle by myself when he tried to feed me to other day. I did it almost all by myself until my arms were tired, and then I let Daddy hold it for a little while.

Momma is very happy because this month she ate some cheese and milk and it didn't make me feel bad. She said it's good that I "outgrew" my intolerance because that way I can have "ice cream" someday.  She was pretty excited about the "ice cream" part.

I still like "bright" colors like red, yellow, and orange the best. I only have two teeth but they are even bigger than they were last month. Momma and Daddy have been very busy so we go see people a lot when Daddy is home on the weekends. During the week, Momma and I will walk to the "mailbox" to get them mail and if it is really nice, we go on a walk. I like to ride in my big stroller and just sit back and look around. Daddy said he's happy I'm "laid back". I also still really enjoy bath time, now I even sit up by myself in the bath.

Bye for now
