- Weighs about 20 lbs.
- Wearing 6-12M (but some 6-9M clothing are too small for him but I'm in denial & still try to squeeze him into them)
- Size 4 Pampers (just went up a size this week)
- Has lots of reddish-blond hair perhaps needs a trim
- Has 5 teeth! He is cutting his 6th tooth too!
-Can say 'mama' and 'dada'. He makes this screeching noise when he gets excited - its too funny!
- Can drink from a straw & sippy cup
- Likes to feed himself; favourite foods are: mum mums, noodles, cheese, bananas, milk
- Crawls everywhere & lifts himself up on whatever he can hold onto! Will take a step from the coffee table to the couch & will walk around the furniture while holding on to it. Sometimes likes to put things in his mouth & carries them as he crawls! Loves crawling up the stairs too!
- This month we moved him into the big carseat vs. the bucket seat (it was a sad day because I love the convenience of the bucket seat & the ability to move him easily especially when he is sleeping.
- Likes sleeping & napping in his crib but does end up in mom's & dad's bed at one point during the night (mainly because I fall asleep while nursing him).
- Still loves his thumb & when he starts sucking it, we know he needs a nap!
- Started reaching up for Cory and I when he wants to be held & whines until we pick him up.
- Loves his big brother & likes to be where ever Jonas is.
- Favourite toys: stuffed animals (especially his bear & Mickey Mouse), pop-up toy, trains, balls, his phone
- Is attracted to items that he is not supposed to have (of course but I think he is worse than Jonas was), items such as toilet paper, register covers, the garbage, door stoppers
- Likes to watch Mickey Mouse with Jonas (he gets giddy & kicks his legs when the show comes on)
- This month he got his first flu, followed by a cold plus cut his 5th tooth! Fortunately he was still quite happy but wanted to be held more & woke up during the night more!
- This month we were also lucky to have Cory home & the boys just love their dad!
Some pictures I'm sharing with you:
This are Emmett's 8 month photo shoot pictures (but he was about 8.5 months old) that my friend Leanne (Rubber Tree Photography) did for us - so cute!
The boys at Indoor Playground (Cory came with us this day & took some pics).
Emmett feeding himself!
The boys playing in the ottoman (Emmett crawled right in & then Jonas had to join him)!
Happy Thursday!
