Jeremiah: 8 months

My babies are growing so fast! I am working on Jeremiah's baby book and I am reminded of how quickly he changes and how I can't even remember those first few months.
I am hoping I can remember his milestones for this month, but I do try to write them on the calender.

At 8 months, Jeremiah is wearing 12 month clothes. He is such a long baby!

 

 

He suffered from his first ear infection the last week of December. The poor baby was up all night Christmas Eve, and it was not in anticipation of Santa. He felt bad all day on Christmas and we took him to the Doctor the next day and he was diagnosed with a double ear infection. 

He did NOT like the pink stuff. Benjamin begged for it and Jeremiah cried. These children are totally different! 

We switched his formula this month and Jeremiah decided he was not going to drink bottles anymore. After several days of worry and frustration, we finally changed up his meal plan. 

Jeremiah has a 6-oz bottle for breakfast with cereal and applesauce. 

Jeremiah has a 6-oz bottle for lunch with vegetables and rice. 

Jeremiah has a vegetables, meat, rice, and fruit for dinner with water or juice in a sippy cup. 

Jeremiah loves and anticipates his bedtime bottle of 6 ounces.

Jeremiah also cut his first tooth for Christmas. He still does not eat finger foods. 

Jeremiah is very playful. He loves to smile and laugh at everybody. He rolls all over the floor and reaches for the toys he wants to play with. 

He still takes 2 naps a day and sleeps 10-11 hours at night. 

Jeremiah is such a happy baby and we are so thankful for him.
