Liliana - 8 months!

Liliana Mae is eight months old today!  She celebrated by practicing her new skill of waving "hi" and "bye-bye"!  She can now clap, wave, and mimic sounds and facial expressions.  She is SO PROUD of herself when she learns something new, and she will repeat it over, and over, and over.  At eight months, Liliana is....

-sleeping through the night consistently, yay!!  The swing stopped working, so we are working on taking naps in the crib now.  Her naps in the crib are significantly shorter than her naps in the swing, but at least she is napping.

-still wearing size 3 diapers and size 9 month and 6-12 month clothes.

-eating three stage two baby foods and four 6-ounce bottles a day.  She loves fruits and sweet potatoes, and she will only eat veggies with fruits mixed in.  She likes to blow raspberries while eating, which causes her to make an enormous mess!

-still not attempting to crawl or pull up.

-the most popular baby in her school.  Her teachers dote on her, and the teachers in the next class room tell us all the time that they cannot wait for her to move to the next class.

-a complete joy, unless she is extremely tired or hungry.  We love our beautiful girl!!
