8 Months

Here's what Natalie has learned to do between 7-8 months of age:

• Says "dadadada", "yayayaya", "bababa"
• Eats puffs
• Goes on walks in the umbrella stroller, and also sitting in the full-size stroller w/o the carseat
• Can sit in the seat of the shopping cart now (YAY!)
• Now sits in the restaurant high chair instead of her infant car seat
• Can pull herself up to a standing position (when holding our two index fingers only)
• Is very ticklish - on her feet, neck, belly, and back
• No longer uses her bouncy chair
• Cries when we lay her on the changing table - she would much rather sit or stand
• Teething! Pulling at the ear, fussy - particularly in the evenings, chews on EVERYTHING
• Has gone down to 3-4 bottles a day and eats 3 solid meals a day. Cereal with 1/2 jar of fruit for breakfast, a jar of babyfood for lunch (fruit, veggies, or meal), and jar of meat + jar of veggies. 
• Loves drinking water from her sippy cup. Throws back her head and chugs. Daddy says bottoms up!
• Loves her jumperoo and exersaucer!
• Is a rolly polly..will cross the room by rolling over and over.
• Will walk across the room while holding onto our hands
• Has become a pro at putting her pacifier in her mouth
• Does not like car rides
• Is the only baby in  her class who gets visibly excited when Mommy comes to pick her up :)
• Sleeps through the night - hurray!
