8 Months!

Connor- You are 8 months old! I can't believe that it is almost time to start planning your first birthday! Here is what you are up to this month!

I'm not quite sure what you weigh this month, but I think your days of not gaining enough weight are over! You LOVE to eat. You have 5 bottles a day and three meals. Your not the biggest fan of veggies but I have found flavors with veggies mixed with fruit that you love!

You are still a great nighttime sleeper and are becoming a good napper too! You take a short morning nap (most days on the go) and then a longer afternoon nap at the same time as Mason. That has been a nice treat!


You're sitting up by yourself now and are trying so hard to army crawl or scoot. I think you are really close but for now you are settling for rolling as your form of transportation.

You still LOVE your brother. When he wakes up in the morning and you see him for the first time you start squealing with delight!

This month you have started sitting in the front of the grocery cart and in highchairs at restaurants! It makes it a lot easier not to have to carry your heavy carrier everywhere we go!

You are still doing great when we leave you in the church nursery and when I leave you for MOPS. This is about the age when separation anxiety hit your brother hard so I am hoping we might avoid that with you!

You love other babies! At a playdate earlier this week you leaned over and gave a kiss to one of your little baby friends. A few weeks ago at church, the nursery worker told us that during a fire drill, the baby next to you in the crib started crying so you cuddled up next to her to make her feel better!

Almost everyone is telling you that you look just like Mason now! Here is a pic of both of you at 8 months to compare!

We love you sweet Connor Benjamin!
