Sherryn at 8 months

Sherryn has been developing new skills without me realising. She turned 8 months yesterday. She is able to sit without support since 6 months, move from lying down position to a sitting position by around 7 months, and pull herself to standing position close to 8 months. I think she is going to crawl over the place in no time. She's been adopting a crawling position but has yet to be able to move too much.

Her routine is now:
- Wakes up around 7am to play.
- Drinks milk (180ml) around 8am. Then bathes, plays.
- Sleeps at around 9.30 to 10am for about an hour.
- Lunch at 12pm - she is now having either porridge or brown rice cereal with cod fish and broccoli / pumpkin.
- Milk (160ml) at close to 2pm before she zzzz again for 2 hours.
- Dinner at 5.30pm - also having either porridge or cereal with fruit puree.
- Milk at 6.30 - 7pm (150ml).
- She knocks out before 7pm every night.
- Then wakes up for a drink of milk at around 10 - 11pm (160ml).

She knows how to call for attention and stretch her arms out for people to carry her. She likes to laugh, and makes sounds when people are talking to her. We havent been able to spend as much time as we would like to with her. But she has been a pretty good girl so far, except that sometimes she can be quite demanding when asking for attention.

Oh ya, she can hold her own bottle to drink her milk too! What a clever little girl!
