A few days late. Because I was hoping that we would have something fun to post about. He doesnt really have many new stories or experiences to really brag about. He looks at things differently now, examining them and manipulating them in new ways with some new brain power. Hes in 9-12 month clothes now. I get kisses here and there, woke up to a kiss the other day. I get hugs and I LOVE those hugs. I get giggles and smiles and love.
8 month stats:
Mastered skills that most can do:
Says "mama" or "dada" to parents (isnt specific) - no. He was on a mama and dada kick but he doesnt really say either anymore. now he makes a "Gha" or "gat" kind of sound for everything.
Passes objects from hand to hand - Oh yes.
Emerging skills that half the kids can do:
Stands while holding onto something - yes
Crawls - no
Points at objects - no
Searches for hidden objects - oh yes
Advanced skills that few kids can do:
Pulls self to standing - Yes. He can do it when we hold out of hands or when he grabs my pant leg but thats it.
Cruises - no
Picks things up with thumb-finger pincer grasp - He manages his puffs and yogurt melts just fine and can occasionally use his thumb and finger to get them into his mouth but its not an all the time thing.
Indicates wants with gestures - He pulls at my shirt when hes hungry and reached for his toys when he wants THAT ONE.
