You had your 8th month birthday on July 20th. You’ve not hit every milestone so far (the sitting up thing is still a little tough for you), but you’ve given us some pretty good ones.
This week you said “Ma”, very deliberately. Whether you associate it with your mother yet or not, we don’t know, but when I say “M”, you watch and delightfully repeat my consonant.
Also, your tiny front, left tooth has crested the gum. Today, your mother felt what she thinks is it’s sidekick. It’s been hard to get a pic, what with your tongue wagging and exploring the new bits in your mouth.
We did, however, get a shot today of your first time on a park swing. You didn’t swing more than a couple of inches back and forth (blame your overprotective daddy if you must), but you seemed very much to enjoy it.
