8 Month Recap!

What?! My baby is 9 months today. I feel like this past month Carson really grew up a lot. Everyday he is becoming less baby and more of a little boy! Here is the recap of month 8 and all the fun things that he did, learned, and figured out! (February 18-March 17)

He got to take his first bubble bath in celebration of his 9 month birthday today! Def. need more bubbles next time


8 Months
  • Crawling maniac
  • Loves to pull up on the sliding glass door and look out at the dog in the yard
  • Loves to play with the vertical blinds
  • Loves helping Mommy load the dishwasher more like play on the dishwasher
  • Mama’s boy (which is not the most convenient sometimes, but I am glad he loves me)
  • Diapers changes have gotten almost impossible because he loves to twist and turn and grab. Speedy changes and changes on the go are what we do!
  • Doesn’t know what to think about crawling in grass
  • Size 3 diapers
  • Size 3 almost 4 shoes
  • 3 meals a day, 4 (sometimes 5) feedings a day
  • Walks along the couch
  • Claps occasionally
  • Working on waving
  • Loves to splash in water
  • Overall a very happy boy!
  • Unfortunately he has learned that if Mama or Dada takes something away that he can cry and dramatize it.
  • LOVES LOVES LOVES books, balls, balloons, and his toys.
  • Crawling up and down steps
  • Sits on knees
  • Starting to eat more little things Mommy and Daddy are eating
  • First haircut
  • First taste of dog foodgross
  • Beginning to use walker
  • Started throwing things out of his crib... during nap time, I will hear him in there jumping up and down on his bed while holding onto the railing and then I will hear a bam and a few seconds later a cry. He throws his binki out and then realizes, "Wait, I really wanted that"... silly boy.
  • He is still sucking on his crib railings. I really need to get those suckers covered before he becomes a beaver and the crib becomes his chew toy!
  • Diving (falling is more like it) into pool by himself at swimming lessons when Mommy give him the cue.
  • Ducks to crawl under things so cute!
  • Still loves Yo Gabba Gabba we have tried other shows, but he could care less!
  • Loves to crawl with something in his hand. It doesn’t matter what it is, but he does especially like it if the object makes a noise every time he puts his weight on it.
  • Two naps a day, but they are getting shorter.. like an hour and a half tops each. He is too little!
  • Bedtime 7 and will sleep till somewhere between 5-6 and wake up to nurse and then right back to sleep till somewhere between 7-8. (hopefully we can get rid of that early feeding before I wean him)

Ro had that same early morning wake up where I'd nurse him and he"d go back to sleep. I weaned him at a year and by that point my milk supply was getting low. So, when we'd give him a big helping of cow's milk at night he'd sleep right through that early morning feeding! I bet Carson will be the same!!
