Nolan- 8 Month Summary








Naps
As always, he is a mediocre sleeper, but he makes up for it in sweetness. He's in between 2 and 3 naps right now. Most days he takes three 45 minute naps, but sometimes one of the naps turns into a 90 minute nap. If that happens then he usually takes just 2 naps. Nolan loves to sleep on his side.

Night Time
Nolan sleeps from 7-7 no problem. Although he usually wakes up around 10, 1, and 4, I LOVE that his nights are 12 hours. Beckett's nights were more like 10.5 hours which is probably why he was such a great napper. When I look at things in that perspective I'm totally ok with Nolan's short naps. He naps with a binky, but doesn't have one at night. He just isn't a big binky kid.

Nursing
Only 4 more months of nursing left! I've never been one of those moms that love breastfeeding. There are a lot of things I love about it, but I'm totally ok when it's over. He nurses in the morning after each of his 2 or 3 naps, and once before bed.

Solids
I feed him baby food 1-2 times a day. He's recently started eating baby puffs and teething wafers. The only real solid things he has been able to handle is rice, risotto, and banana. Everything else has to be mushy mush.

Skills
Sitting, waving, rolling both ways, tongue clicking, and growling. And he has one little tiny bottom tooth!

Favorites
Being outside, baths, drinking water out of a cup, and playing on the trampoline.
