I'm a couple weeks late with this post, but Kendall is 8 months! We have been super busy with all the crawling, new teeth (she is working on teeth 3 - 6, all on the top), and mom and dad working, and the blog has fallen behind as a result. Finally have some time to get the posts rattling around in my head typed up, so this is the first of several posts.
Kendall is up to all sorts of new things, from climbing the walls to "talking" up a storm. The kid is non-stop! And we are loving every second. Here is the monthly round-up, even if she is almost 9 months now.
Kendall at 7 Months
Weight - 19 lbs (give or take)
Height - 27 1/2 inches (again, give or take)
Sounds Like - Usually loud. "Singing", "Talking" YELLING. Banging everything she can get her hands on. This kid likes it loud and ruckus. I'm thinking there is a lot of rock music in our future.
Likes - The jumperoo (Nate and I have the songs memorized. "One Little Horsey plays peek-a-boo..."). Eating - loves just about any food you give to her. She is currently digging puffs, which are cereal like finger foods that dissolve in baby's mouth. Fun to watch her pick them up. Sleeping on her belly, and she will flip from any position you have her in to sleep on the belly.
Dislikes - Naps - these are for sucks. Too much going on to nap. Staying asleep. Kendall wants you to hang with her while she sleeps - we are not as fond of that program.Clearly we are currently working on sleep.
Things she can do - Roll front-to-back as well as back-to-front. Sit up from a lying position (even though she protests). Scoot around (more to come on that), which is almost crawling. Pull herself up to stand, and even stand on her own for a couple of seconds.
Kendall at 8 Months
Weight - 19.2 lbs (75th percentile)
Height - 28 inches (75 percentile)
Sounds Like - a Beach Boy's record. Ba-ba-ba ba-ba-barbaran. She is quite the talker, but she only says one consonant, so we don't get much information.
Likes - Jumping, still. Sammy the Snail - mom and dad are not so fond of Sammy. Destroying block towers. Swimming - swim lessons are so much fun! The Hokey-poky, especially if you do the dance for her.
Dislikes - Plain yogurt. With all the foods she has eaten, we have not gotten such a reaction (video below - and that was mild, she won't perform on camera). We have since moved to flavored yogurt, and that is delicious. Naps - still for sucks.
Things she can do - She is learning to use her sippy cup and feed herself puffs - and she is really excited about it. She can crawl, pull herself up, fall back down, sit, turn around. She is a mover and shaker, and she is now able to start actually getting somewhere. Everyday she is moving faster and farther. Pretty soon she will want the keys to the car.

She's getting so big....and her hair has changed so much! CUTE! I don't blame her on the plain yogurt...bring on the flavor! :)
