8 Months

guh.  I don’t even know what to say about how we are already at this point in life.  Eight.  Whole.  Months.  Crazy.

Right now we’re trying to figure out what to do about foods.  According to Gerber, Addy should be on Stage 3 foods which is for crawlers.  Addy is an excellent crawler but she is still only 8 months.  We got some smoothie things for her to try but I’m not sure how chunky they are.  She’s been doing fine with gnawing on things, and can feed herself the yogurt drops and whatever other little chewy baby thingies they have.  Wagon wheels and Cheetos looking deals.  I mean she’s really good at it.  Picks it up with one hand, then transfer it to the other, then shove in mouth.  Repeat.

But most of the Stage 3 foods are meat and the canned meat thing just seems weird to me.  Maybe if I ate Spam I’d be all for it??? I’m not against her eating meat, she can just eat what we eat.  One of those books I read said something about Indian moms not cutting out the curry for their babies and I’m all “oooh yeah she can just eat what we eat”.  I’ll wait and see how she does with that.

If some teeth come in.

And her latest trick is this:

Yes that is her free standing.  For that whole Jimmy Fallon credit card commercial.  The thing is that she has to be distracted (by TV) because if you are facing her she wants to dance or jump and fall on her butt.

So…yeah that’s where we are with that.
