Charlotte at 8 months



Charlotte is now 8 months old! She is on the verge of crawling - she can take a few steps forward but can go backwards better still. She also likes to pull herself up onto her knees.

We've been trying all kinds of new foods - asparagus, tofu, spinach, ground up flax seeds, and kiwi. She also loves finger foods - the puffs that dissolve in her mouth and I recently gave her a infant biscuit to try. She gnawed on it for about 20 minutes (it took her that long to eat it) - she loved it!

Here is a typical day for us:

6:30 - 7:00 Charlotte wakes up during this time and I breastfeed her. We then go downstairs and I eat my breakfast while Charlotte plays. She then gets oatmeal with a fruit, and ground up flax.

9:00 Morning Nap

10:00 Wakes up, gets juice / water

11:00 Breastfeed her, normally go for a walk after this

12:00 Lunch - yogart with fruit - she LOVES this! Then she normally watches a BabyFaith video while I eat lunch. She is mesmerized by these videos - from what I understand they are like Baby Einstein but they tell bible stories.

1:00 Afternoon Nap

2:30 /3:00 Breastfeed, we run errands if we need to after this

5:00 Dinner for Charlotte - Oatmeal, Veggies, tofu or a meat, then playtime

6:15 Bathtime / breastfeed

7:00 Bedtime
