8 Months

Pictures of Zoey at 8 Months


Her favorite toy- a water bottle!


First tooth! Kind of hard to see but I had to get a picture- it is so cute!


Zoey is growing like a weed! I took her to the Dr. for a follow up visit (more on that later) and she was 16 lbs 3 oz. Just a little munchkin but she feels so big to me! She is so much fun and makes me so happy. I can't help but smile at all the cute things she does all day.


Things about Zoey at 8 months


-still not crawling. I think she could, she just chooses not to
-won't hold her bottle. I know she can, she just chooses not to

-can pull herself up to standing (most of the time)

-as you can tell she does things in her own time and I cannot force her to do anything unless SHE is ready
-her new favorite chew toy is MY HAIR. She always finds it and sucks on it. So gross.. but very hard to stop. She is sneaky and half the time I don't notice she is doing it

-gets the chills. She will be playing and stop and shiver and make a brr sound. it is hilarious to watch!

-has regressed in eating. She got sick and didn't eat solids for a few days and now she is being a pill and won't eat very well. She's getting a little better so hopefully we will be back to 2-3 meals a day soon

-generally sleeps through the night with 1 night feeding. So much better than before

-makes all sort of funny noises and does silly things with her mouth. She sounds like a dinosaur half the time and an owl the other half. She is constantly puffing small breaths of air. It must be entertaining to her- Jed says this is a sainsbury trait

-eats her bracelet whenever I put it on her

-has become my little Indian and does the hand powwow all the time

-We call her buggy, or buggy bug. I don't know why- but I love it

-had a bladder infection :(


She was really sick a couple weeks ago so we took her in to get check out and she ended up with a bladder infection. I feel so bad for my little baby that she was that sick and in so much pain. We didn't get any sleep for 2 nights because she felt so horrible. I think she would go to sleep and then pee and that would wake her up because it was so painful. My Pediatrician said it isn't normal for a little baby her age to get an infection as bad as hers and since we have a family history of bladder problems, she has to go get a bunch of test done at Primary's. I am not looking forward to that and hope that everything will come back normal.

I hope she doesn't have anything wrong like I did. :( How come you didn't say anything about that? When are her tests? Those pictures are soooo cute!! Did Spencer take them? Love that little buggy-boo.
