Ben’s 8 Month Update

March 9, 2017 by Jordan Meline Leave a Comment

Oh my, time is flying, y’all! This sweet guy is 8 months old – I just can’t believe it.

Weight: I’m going to guess 20 lbs!

Height: 29 in? I honestly don’t know…

Diaper size: Size 4

Clothing size: 9 months mostly, and some 12 months!

Nicknames: Ben, Benny Boo Boo

Health: Still a healthy boy!

Sleep: Doing OK in this department, when he does wake up early, he just talks to himself for a while. Still doing about 2 naps a day and it is GLORIOUS when his nap and brother’s nap lines up 🙂

Diet: Eating some baby food (bananas, apples, mangoes, carrots, green beans), mastering the Puffs but the melts still choke him up haha, still drinking formula too

Loves: Social interaction. Splashing/Kicking in the bathtub. Reading books. Going on walks. Putting anything and everything in his mouth. CRAWLING. Jumping in the Exersaucer.

Dislikes: Turning away from him. Leaving him for ONE second. haha

Other Random Things:

ARMY CRAWLING ALL THE TIME.

Still a chatter box 🙂

This kid is a little swimmer – and holds his own against the big kids (aka brother) in his swim class! He is now going under the water and holding his breath for four seconds, and coming up without sputtering and crying (unlike brother, ugh!).

Ben has both bottom teeth now, yay!

Those eyes just melt my heart!

Sweeties!

Simple Train Birthday Party

Simple Train Birthday Party

Having two boys 13 months apart can be tough most days out of the year, but being able to have a combined birthday party for a two and three year old is a piece of (birthday) cake. After the last birthday party – Luke’s first birthday being 9 months pregnant – I needed two whole […]

Five Drug Store Beauty Finds under $15

I watched Mamma Mia for the first time on Netflix last weekend and now I have ABBA on repeat on Spotify… I can’t believe it has taken me ten years to watch it. I love me some Pierce Brosnan. Hands down the most handsome James Bond, in my opinion. Don’t worry, David knows. He’s okay […]

Simple Small Pantry Organization

So needless to say, organizing my pantry was way down the list of things to do. Disclosure: Please note there are affiliate and referral links within this […]
