Jordyn Ivy: 8 months

I’m continuing to expand my horizons with trips to BJs, the grocery store and I even went to a restaurant! There are so many people and things to look at, I love it so much. 

I especially love trying to steal food off everyone’s plate. I do not grasp the fact that certain foods cannot be eaten with only two teeth. I feel like if you just put your mind to it, you can eat anything. I much prefer feeding myself so I am very messy after eating, most times I can get the spoon in my mouth and 6 out of 10 times I get the mashed raspberries, blueberries and puffs in my mouth after picking them up. 

You have to be careful though because I figured out how to pull myself up and I will try grabbing your plate and food. 

When I’m not contained I am moving. I’ve picked up speed and am slowly realizing that I can use this new movement to go in to different rooms. This is mostly so that I can play peek a boo which is the greatest game in the world. 

I dropped my third nap, and am rocking a solid two-nap schedule right now. Some days are better than others, but I’m mostly consistent with my first nap. 

Since it’s officially summer I am spending lots of time in the water and loving it. 

I continue to enjoy reading and will say “boo” to let you know I want to read. Textures are fun, and I’ve gotten to play with colored tapioca pearls and “paint” to learn more about it.
