8 Months

2007-11-20 14:25:38 • by Leanne Verkley

Hadley is eight months old today.  She is now 15.5 pounds up from 14.1 pounds and 67 cm long up from 66cm from her six month appointment.  This appointment didn't have any needles just a check up to see where she was at.
She met all the 9 month objectives even though she is only 8 months.  She is sitting on her own, using her pinchers; she is especially good at this from practicing to pick up her Taggies toys. (This is grabbing things with her thumb and forefinger).  She is also waving now.  Although it is a whole arm wave (it is the cutest thing ever and makes me smile every time), and she puts her arms up when I say up.
The next thing that the doctor said we should be working on is attempting to stand.  Well, she is all over that as well.
I think Hadley was glad to not have needles at this appointment.
For me, I have 7 pounds to go to get back to my pre-pregnancy weight down from 13 at the six month mark.  I keep pressing on.  :)
