Eight months old

Andrew was 8 months old last week. Where did the time go. As it has holidays it has been a little quieter than normal. What is a normal day?

Andrew normally wakes around 6am. He sleeps all night about 80% of the time. He sometimes go back to sleep for an hour so after a feed and a nappy change. Then he has breakfast with mummy and dad. Andrew has baby cereal and fruit for breakfast. Then we have another feed.

Sometimes he will go straight back to sleep after this. If not he will play on floor for a while and then have a sleep. He can sit really well now. He isn't crawling yet but manages to move on his tummy around in circles. He is gets stuck in corners as he can go backwards. Then he lets mummy and/or daddy know so that they can rescue him.

Andrew has three meals a day. He likes most food. Vegetables, meat and fruit. Last night he had coscous for the first time. He also likes cruskits. He still has five or six milk feeds a day. As well as this he likes paper. Last week he ate mummy shopping list at the supermarket.

He is still have at least two sleeps during the day of at least a hour and half if not more. Since we came back from Christchurch mummy and daddy have been trying to get him to sleep from between 7-8 at night until at least 6am. We are having some success with this. He normally goes to sleep okay but may wake up again before mummy and dad go to sleep.

Below are a selection of mummy's favourite photos.
