Savannah Month Eight

Loves: Still loves being tickled and being outside, whether we are on a walk or swinging at the park, she loves her pacifier, and loves all dogs. She also loves when Daddy comes home!

Eating: She has a bottle at 7, 11, 3, and then right before bedtime at around 7:30.She still eats 3 meals of baby food a day, along with Puffs and Yogurt Melts for snacks. She is still not a fan of solid foods. She will eat pieces of banana, and rice. She just doesn't like the texture of most solid foods.

Sleeping: She is still doing great with her sleep (knock on wood!) She goes to sleep around 7:45 and wakes up at around 7:15. She rarely wakes up in the middle of the night now. She takes a morning and an afternoon nap. The morning nap is from around 9:30 to 11, and the afternoon nap is around 1:30-3.

Clothes: She is wearing some 6-9 and 6-12 month clothes and Size 3 diapers. Some of her 6-9 month clothes are already too small, so we will have to move up to 9-12 month soon! She is getting so big!!

Fun Facts: Savannah loves puppies. She likes to "talk" (scream/yell) at them anytime she sees them. Her hair sticks STRAIGHT UP all the time. It is too funny. Everywhere we go, someone says something about her hair. My Dad always says we need to put some "product" on it. He has even tried slicking it down with water, but it immediately starts sticking up again.

Mommy Moments:Savannah used to nap on me all the time. Now she only does if she wakes up early from a nap and is still sleepy, but even this is rare. I was lucky to get a couple of nap sessions in this month, but I am cherishing each time because I know it will soon be gone. I love watching her experience something for the first time, like she did with swinging in a baby swing this month. It is so neat to see things through her eyes.

Firsts: She swung in her first baby swing, went to her first wedding (my cousin Jared and his new wife Brittany), traveled to Mississippi for the wedding, perfected army crawling, and stayed the weekend at Pops and Nana's for her first time away from me and Brian.

Savannah Month 7

Loves: Being tickled, her stuffed monkey, going on walks, watching her Animal Safari movie on car trips, all fruits, her piano, when Mommy or Daddy laugh

Eating: She has a bottle at 7, 11, 3, and then right before bedtime at around 7:30.We added a breakfast meal this month, so she eats fruit and cereal at 8:30, lunch which is a fruit and veggie mix at around 12:30, and a meat dinner at around 6. She is pretty picky and at dinner her favorite thing to eat is Gerber Apples and Chicken. We have tried feeding her some little pieces of things we eat and she has gagged on pretty much all of it! She just doesn't like the texture. The only thing she has liked so far is cooked potatoes and bananas. She does like Puffs and Yogurt melts for snacks.

Sleeping: She is doing great with her sleep (knock on wood!) She goes to sleep around 7:45 and wakes up at around 7:15. She rarely wakes up in the middle of the night now. She takes a morning and an afternoon nap. The morning nap is from around 9:30 to 11, and the afternoon nap is around 1:30-3.

Clothes: She is wearing some 3-6 month clothes and some 6-9 month clothes. She is wearing Size 3 diapers.

Fun Facts: Savannah got her first two bottom teeth! They actually came in at the same time! She also started saying "Dada" this month. She is very dainty and cautious. We have noticed that if she sees something new, she will study it for awhile before she actually tries to grab it. When she does grab it she does it very slowly. It's like she thinks it will bite her!

Mommy Moments: I am loving watching her personality grow. She is very particular about her likes and dislikes which is fun to watch. She is a happy little lady and she just lights up when she sees me or her Daddy.

Firsts: She too her first pictures with Bluebonnets. She didn't like them very much, but we got a few good ones! She also met the Easter Bunny and celebrated her first Easter. She rode in her stroller like a big girl, and we transitioned her to a big girl car seat as well. She attended her first crawfish boil, and of course got her first two teeth!
