8 Months Old















Jonathan is 8 months old.

He doesn't crawl, but every now and then he'll get on his little hands and knees and have a look around. Then he'll usually decide that it's easier and more fun to roll from side to side instead. When you're very chubby, it's easy to be roly-poly!

He can scoot around in his walker pretty well, both backward and forward.

He has one tooth starting to poke through on the bottom row, with another one not far behind.

His eyes are getting to be very deep blue. His hair is red or orange.

He likes to watch the Baby Einstein videos, but he is scared of the dogs in Baby Mozart. He likes it when people sneeze playfully. It almost always makes him laugh.

His sisters bought him a toy telephone last week with (mostly) their very own money.

He gets very cranky in the evening and usually screams and cries until he falls asleep. Then he snoozes peacefully for about an hour and then wakes up in a better mood before going to sleep for the night. He wakes up a few times during the night, but usually goes back to sleep without too much trouble.

He likes to go for stroller rides around the neighborhood. He is learning about the backyard and the playground in the next block. He tries to eat the grass.

He is a happy baby with happy sisters, and a tired but happy Mommy and Daddy.
