James at 8 months

 

Eating

James is eating three meals a day and has milk feeds in the morning, just before bed, and 1-2 during the day. He seems to really enjoy his food, and the staff at the nursery always comment on what a good eater he is. James loves roast root veg like parsnips and squash as well as yogurts and pears. He will try anything we put in front of him and seems to have enjoyed trying different types of fish this month, some curries, and strawberries.

 

Sleeping

His sleeping has remained pretty consistent, with 2-3 45-minute naps during the day and around 11 hours at night.

 

Appearance

He is now a solid 20 pounds and his hair continues to get longer and perhaps even redder. He wears a range of clothing sizes depending on the brand, but the majority are now 9-12 months.

 

Development

He can sit unassisted now comfortably and we only tend to put cushions behind him now if he is sitting on a hard floor. He can stand when holding onto something pretty well, but hasn't made any more progress on his rolling or crawling. James still lives his jolly jumper and loves using bouncers at friends or nursery.

Oh I just cannot wait to squeeze him! He looks so cute in his Easter gear. Epic fail for us as parents - since we were flying home with so much stuff on Easter, the bunny missed our house :( love that his Africa shirt fits now - represent! xoxox
