November 8, 2011 - Brennan at 8 months

Well since this is pretty late (it's not November any more), I'll just give some quick stats about Brennan...

B turned 8 months old. We didn't have an exact weight (no doctor until next month for well visit) but she is over 20 pounds. She is HUGE!! She's tall and "healthy" looking! She is often mistaken for much older, because of her size, but mostly because of the hair!









Brennnan is babbling (yeah!) and making all kinds of mouth sounds. She is very happy and social but getting some stranger anxiety. She definitely does not like to be left alone, even for a second. It's hard to get to the bathroom! She is still cruising the furniture and she is a very fast crawler. She does not stop!!

She is still eating baby food and oatmeal twice a day and 3 bottles a day. She has also tried puffs and is getting better with those so maybe some day we will move past those. She likes most foods we have tried. The only bad ones are some of the really thick looking (dog food-esque) jarred foods. I even tried some stage 3 packets and I returned the rest. They looked and smelled so vile.

Brennan is still a toothless wonder! She doesn't drool too much yet (a little) and we aren't really experiencing any really bad teething symptoms yet. Conner was a super late teether so we're thinking it's just a family thing! She wants to be with Conner all the time and likes to do just what he does!!




Otherwise, things are good. Brennan did get another cold/sinus infection that lasted forever and did get to take amoxicillin again. She handled it great (even though there was constant snot in her hair!). She is the best baby and we love her so much!
