Halle is on the move! She is getting up on her knees, seriously trying to stand up, and army crawls everywhere! She spots something and then she is on a mission to get it. She gets going so fast. It's so adorable.
She absolutely adores Sophie, and Sophie adores Halle. Sophie is REALLY good with her. If Halle is crying, Sophie will say, "It's ok Halle. Sophie's here." I just love it.
One of my favorites times of the whole day is bathtime. At 7:00 p.m., we hit the tub. Halle loves the bath. She slaps her hands down and splashes water in her face. Sophie will do the same thing, and Halle gets belly laughing so hard it makes us all crack up laughing. They do the same thing every night. We were lucky enough to get in on video the other night.
Halle is still the best baby in the whole world! She has such a sweet and calm personality. I just love her to pieces. She is so flexible with whatever we do. She is MADLY in love with me right now. If someone else is holding her and she can hear my voice or see me, she will start crying. She loves her Mommy. What can I say...She'd better!
Halle loves to pull hair. Just look at her grin as she is attacking her sister. Sophie is cracking up too. They love each other to pieces and enjoy each other's company so much.
The Johnny Jumper is one of Halle's favorite things to do. Thank you, Tyson, for letting us borrow yours. We have a park in our neighborhood. Sophie loves to play there, but there is not anything for Halle to do. It's an elementary school, so they don't have any baby swings. I took the jumper and hooked it on a swing set, and Halle had a ball!
She gets up on her knees, but then will fall down and army crawl.
Isn't she getting to be a little stinker? Just look at that face! Halle is definitely letting us know now when she is not happy about something. She will throw a fit if she wants something and we take it away before she can get to it. She will start screaming and we just laugh. It is so hilarious when she does it because we know exactly what she's doing. We say that she doesn't stand a chance. Sophie has already broken us in!
Another one of Halle's favorite things are swings. She gets laughing in them. We loves parks that have baby swings.
At 8 months...
Halle loves: her mommy, Sophie, her daddy, the Johnny Jumper, bathtime, when her mommy sings, walks, swings, hammocks
Halle does not like: when people scream, when she can't have something she wants, getting her nose aspirated, being without her mommy when she knows I am near.
Eats: formula 24oz per day, rice cereal, Gerber baby foods...all fruits and veggies, Pedialyte this week!
Sleeps: Awesome! 7:30pm until 6am, eats, and then sleeps until 7:30 or 8:00am. Two naps a day. 9:30ish and 2ish. She sleeps a total of 3-4 hours during the day.
What a cutie pie! We love Halle, too.
ReplyDeleteAnna is doing the same things. Army crawls everywhere and hates to hear me but not be with me. I love it to. I love babies. They have such a way of making you feel so loved.
