At the end of September, a little someone turned 8 months old. I figure since it's the middle of October, I should write about it!
Eva learned quite a bit during her 8th month. She learned to pull up on things and we found her like this much of the time:
 |
| Standing at the cabinets while Mom washes dished. |
Luckily, she has also learned how to sit herself back down carefully.
 |
| She's not falling here, she's going down to the sitting position. |
 |
| Who needs a dog when you've got an Eva under the table? |
She had a check up at about 7 1/2 months old and she weighed 13 lb. 7 oz. So maybe she'll be at 14 lbs. by the time she reaches 9 months!
She also is learning to stand by herself. She's done it for about 9 seconds at a time, before falling back onto her bottom. I'm thinking maybe by 9-10 months she'll have taken her first steps. We'll see though.
A couple of weeks before Eva turned 8 months, she fell out of her crib! Crazy, eh? She was pulling herself up already, but we hadn't gotten around to moving the mattress to the lower setting. Well, she climbed up on her bumper and somehow got her whole self out onto the floor. It did not make her happy! The crib mattress was lowered almost immediately!
Eva is such a fun girl. She loves to laugh, play with her brothers, and babble. She does the cutest thing when she gets tired. She takes her arm and puts it over her eyes, signaling she's ready to be put down for a nap or for nighttime. I don't always wait for this signal, but I know when she does it, that she's ready to say goodnight for awhile!
