Eight Months | Milestone Pictures
Okay.. eight months is way too close to a year for me. I’m so sad realizing how fast time is going!!
This month Everett:
- Tried more food: tri tip, asparagus, honey dew, pita, pepperoni pizza, cilantro rice, tomatoes, meatballs, pineapple, bell peppers, grapes, banana pancakes, lime, chicken nuggets, shredded pork, chocolate chip pancakes, cinnamon roll, cantaloupe, banana muffins, chicken alfredo, toast, broccoli, turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, banana nut muffin, berry smoothie, homemade pizza, chow mein, string cheese, peanut butter and jelly, biscuits and gravy, butternut squash
- Said his first word– Dada! Caden was pretty stoked that he was first this time since Clyde said mama. Everett has no desire to say “mama” and says “dada” every single time I try. Hahah. He’ll also say “baba” and “papa” sounds but “dada” for sure!
- Is army crawling everywhere!! He started like the day after he turned 7 months and is really fast now! He can go wherever he needs to go but he definitely prefers carpet over our hard floors!
- Is starting to get on his knees and rock back and forth! I’m guessing he will be up crawling really soon!
- Loves that brother of his like none other! He looks at Clyde with such admiration and it’s honestly the cutest thing ever. Clyde loves him just as much and takes any chance he can to make him laugh or smile! He has also been great at sharing his toys with “baby evit” which has been so appreciated!
- Still sleeps and eats great! He’s such a chill, happy baby! He’s drinking bottles 4 times a day and eating any chance he can. Haha.
- Got croup from Clyde this month but handled it well! Since we had a sick visit we were able to see how much he weighs and he’s now 18.10 pounds! He’s short and chubby and so cute!
This month we:
- Took a trip to St George! We went so that I could take my aunt’s family pictures, so we stayed the weekend at their home there and had a blast! The boys went on a Razr ride and loved it (even though we were panicked about them the whole time haha) and Ev swam for the first time! Doing new things with our kids is our favorite thing in the world, so we had a bunch of fun!
- Went to Gaga & Papa’s cabin! We loved spending time with family and getting some sunshine! The boys had a blast 4 wheeling, rock skipping, hanging around the fire with cousins, and doing all the cabin things!
- Had two sick weeks! The first was after St. George, Clyde started puking just hours after we got home. It was nonstop and quite the adventure. Then two weeks later, after the cabin, the boys got croup! It was kinda a bummer start to the summer but luckily we still had so much fun the other two weeks of the month!
- Celebrated Ty & Tamia graduating high school! Can’t believe my little siblings aren’t so little anymore. We also celebrated the life of our Aunt Dianne, who we will miss so much!!
