8 Months Old January 25th



Yesterday Daniel was 8 months old. He had a great day at church playing with Cady and getting admired by all of our new friends. In the afternoon, he napped with his mother while Daddy worked for a few hours, and then he watched Mother and Daddy exercise while he jumped in his jumperoo. He played under the computer table with an old briefcase covered in zippers. Zippers are one of his favorite things these days. He played with his boxes and music cube. He chewed on his wooden puzzle pieces from Uncle David, and he loved on his GG duck. He spent ten intense minutes touching all the surfaces of the step stool. (This morning he figured out how to turn it over, so we had to put it in another room.) He and Daddy watched the ceiling fans while Mother took a shower. Daniel went to sleep peacefully around 8 pm. It was a lovely day.

On his 8 month birthday, Daniel ate oatmeal and bananas for breakfast. He ate oatmeal, bananas, avocado, and Cheerios for lunch. He ate oatmeal, bananas, whole wheat bread, and Cheerios for dinner. Daniel LOVES oatmeal. We can barely get it in the spoon fast enough for him. He didn't like avocado at first, but he loves it now.

In the picture, Daniel is wearing a green sweater vest from Alex, our sweet friend who is back in Indonesia now. We have good memories of helping Alex get ready for church at Woodmont by dressing him in that sweater. Daniel is proud to wear it these days!
