Kaelia - 8 Months

This has been such a great month for Kaelia: she has learned to crawl, pull herself up to a stand, walk along furniture, crawl up one step, turn the pages in her books, and "talk" a little more! Kaelia went through the stages of mobility so fast. She attempted to crawl during the first week of the month, and was fluently crawling by the second week. During week three, she was already moving along the furniture.

Kaelia's verbal knowledge is increasing as well. She loves to hold her books by herself and turn the pages. She also started using the "b" consonant by saying "ba ba ba" over and over again. She especially likes "talking" to Taelyn; the two of them say "ba ba ba" to each other while with each syllable, their faces get closer and closer together.

At 8 months, Kaelia is now 17.7 lbs. 27.6 inches tall, and has a head circumference of 16.7 inches. Her growth was not a significant gaon from last month due to all of her sudden activity level.
