I cannot believe that Maddie is EIGHT MONTHS OLD.
Time is surreal when it involves kids.
Here’s what she’s up to, from her mom:
Maddie can:
Sit for a long period
Stand with very little assistance
Trying to bounce!
Crawl!
Use utensils
Use her voice.. loves to scream and babble
Now drink out of an open cup and a 360 cup (by herself!)
She puts herself to bed now
Trying to crawl toward Bella (the cat) and pet her
Know the words “mama” “doggy” “bottle” “night night” “daddy” “bath”
Maddie likes:
Audio books
music
Her “command center” (it’s a sort of baby gym—she goes in the center and she has toys all around her in the circle, but the bottom bit isn’t stable, so she works on her muscles while she’s playing )
Fishy and Sophie of course (toys :))
Her stacking blocks
Using utensils herself! Don’t help her!
Going out to eat
Car Rides
LOVES Doggie (Duke their dog)
Lemons and limes
Swings!
Looking at herself in the mirror
Maddie does not like:
Sleeves
Being overtired
Put in stroller (initially or when it’s not moving)
Face being washed after meals
