Eight Months

Well here we are. Eights months into this adventure.


Lorelei:
Weight/Length: We didn't go to the doctor this month, but I am guessing well over 14 pounds, maybe 15? 
Hair and Eyes: Hair is almost white! So, so blonde! Eyes are big and blue! 
Diapers: Size 2.
Clothing: Wears 9 month pjs. Can still wear 6 month bubbles. her little, um, big thighs do tend to make things tight...
Favorite Things: Anything that crinkles is her favorite. 
Likes: Loves bath time. And this girl loves sleep. It is amazing. And awesome. likes her paci. Likes sitting up and playing. 
Dislikes: Still not much she dislikes. She's a good baby. She does get frustrated that she can't move as fast as sissy. 
Eating: Still at 6 ounces with one scoop of oatmeal. Eating at  8 am, 12p, 4p, and 7:30ish. She loves her purees - butternut squash, sweet potatoes, apple sauce, pears and bananas. We tried sweet peas, but she didn't like those either. Still can't find anything green she likes. :( 
Sleeping: Still sleeping like a champ! This sweet, angel baby sleeps through the night!! She goes down at 7:30ish and I usually have to wake her up at 7:15! Her sister on the other hand..... 
Milestones: Not really into crawling yet. But rolls around a lot. Babbles up a storm. Sits like a champ. She is the sweetest little girl.


Eloise:
Weight/Length: E is around 14 lbs She still spits up, but still doesn't seem to bother her much.  
Hair and Eyes: Her hair is getting so long! And it is super blonde! Eyes are beautiful blue!
Diapers: Size 2
Clothing: 9 month pjs. We still have some 6 month outfits that work though, but moving on to 9 month clothes.
Favorite Things:  Loves Soffie the giraffe. Chews and sucks on her hands all the time. Actually anyone's hands she can get. She LOVES bouncing and playing. loves crawling, but really just wants you to pick her up. 
Likes: Loves smiling and laughing. She cracks herself up. Loves reaching out and playing with things. Still loves bath time now! She's a little fish!  
Dislikes: Being put down or feeling like no one is paying attention to her. DIVA. And she hates sitting still.
Eating: 6 oz every feeding with 2 scoops of oatmeal. She is still a "happy spitter." Still spitting, a lot. Same eating schedule as sis. We started baby food- butternut squash, sweet potatoes, apple sauce, pears and bananas. Bananas are by far her favorite. She opens her mouth wiiiiiiide open for every bite. 
Sleeping: She goes to her bed around 7:30, but actually asleep..... She just about sleeps through the night. She will startle some and i can just put her paci in and she'll go back to sleep till about 6:30. 
Milestones: She is crawling everywhere and fast!
