8 Months
At 7.5 months we nap trained. I was over the first trimester exhaustion and Elliot had gotten used to only sleeping on me. When we tried to let him nap in his crib he'd only sleep for 30 minutes at a time. He'd wake up still tired and grumpy. After a week of nap training he'll now sleep for over an hour at each nap in his crib. Totally worth it again!
He also slept all the way through the night for the first time this month!
And a week and a half before turning 8 months old Elliot started crawling! Now he's army crawling like crazy ALL over the place.
He's also obsessed with walking. He was only walking using our fingers to hold him up and it was becoming absolutely exhausting. We bought him a walker and it's made life so much easier! Now it's his favorite toy and he loves chasing me or Daddy up and down the hall over and over again!
*He pulls himself up and loves to walk with us.
*He stands up against the glass door...hoping someone will let him into the backyard. He loves being outside!
*He really likes swimming!
*He cut his first 2 teeth (bottom 2) on May 19th at almost 7.5 months. They're so sharp!
*He always holds his arms out and moves his wrists/hands around when he wants anything.
*He makes the silliest dinosaur noises.
*Bathtime has become difficult because he wants to either stand up or lunge forward.
*He started to feed himself food (apple slices was the first thing!) on May 23rd.
*He discovered bubbles in the tub!
