We're 8 months old!!

Hadley and Hailey were 8 months old on May 4th (28 weeks adjusted)! They are getting so big and are a lot more active this month. They are talking up a storm and are into everything! I love all the new noises they are making, and how they love to interact with us and each other.

This month Hadley and Hailey are:
- wearing size 3 diapers and 3-6 month clothes

- eating 4-6 oz roughly every 3-4 times a day, and eating solids 3x a day (3oz at breakfast; 4oz at lunch; and 6oz at dinner)

- they love eating cheese puffs and feeding themselves. 

- we are still attempting to drink water from a sippy cup. They think its more for banging on their tray than for drinking.

- They are still sleeping well in their own room in their own cribs from about 8:00pm-6:00am; every once in a while they will wake up, but usually just if they aren't feeling well.

- They are able to sit without any support

- They are squirming all over the floor trying to crawl, but not getting anywhere

- They still love to talk and play, and will interact with each other now and us.

- They are able to grasp objects and toys and can switch items from hand to hand

- They will look for things that they have dropped and then look back to me to get it.

- They love being sung to and read to and have even started "singing" with us
- They are still doing well at daycare and making tons of friends
