8 Month Update

Emma is 8 months!! She is growing growing growing! 

Eating:

She has been continuing to eat puréed jared food along with pureed meats with vegetables. She loves food and is starting to pick up and eat foods on her own. 

Morning: has a bowl of pureed fruits mixed with oatmeal

Lunch: usually pureed porridge vegetable or with meats. 

Dinner: same as lunch. But will had fruits too. 

She breastfeeds a total of about 5-6 times a day and has 1 bottle of formula while im at work.

This month im going to try led weaning slowly.

Sleeping:

She has been teething the past few weeks and her two bottom teeth her growing in. I believe because of her teething she has been waking up more frequently. Its either that or she feels that is is in a new house so she isn't quite used to the environment. 

But anyways its been super tiring. It feels like she is a newborn again! She falls asleep at like 11 or 12 and wakes up several times during night until 8:30-9 in the morning. Her day naps are still about 3x for 30-40min long. 

Her routine is basically gone. Its hard now that we live with my in-laws since they sleep very late and make more noise. Im not sure if i can really put her down any earlier...

Misc.:

This month she has been saying 'um-ma and ah ppa' which is mom and dad in korean! She esp calls for me more at night time. Its the most precious thinggg! She also has been trying to crawl this month. Shes not yet on her knees but she can basically scoot herself around wherever she wants to go. 

Another thing she has been doing this month is pooping and peeing in the toilet! My mother in law has been bringing her to the toilet whenever she looks like shes pooping. And when she puts her on the toilet she tells her to poop and pee and she has been doing it!

I cant believe shes already potty training. Its been an amazing month watching her grow. 

Oh and i cant forget the clapping. She loves to clap now. She does it a lot! Haha. Its the most precious thing. :)
