The Friedbergs: 8 Month Update

Hello everyone! Is anyone else tired of this snow? I know, I know. “We need the moisture.” Yeah, well I need sunshine! Come on Spring!!!

The girls are getting so big! Here are the stats from our last doctor appointment:

Hannah: 18 lbs. & 26 inches tall

Emily: 19 lbs. & 26.5 inches tall

Emily has learned so many things in the last month. It’s so cool to watch. She figured out how to clap St. Patrick’s day morning during church. She has also learned the sign language sign for “eat.” The girl likes to eat so she mastered that one pretty quickly. I’ve been trying to get video of it but I keep forgetting. (I’ll try harder this month) She’s also started to babble a little bit.

Hannah, on the other hand, is babbling a lot. She talks, then screams, then talks some more. “Da-da” is her word of choice. She’s still a little bit of a picky eater but she’s getting better. She’ll also waves “hi” with her chubby little hands.

Both still only have their two bottom teeth but we can tell the top two are coming in soon. They are chewing on everything in sight and aren’t sleeping well. I feel bad for the little sweeties. Growing up is tough work.

They also mastered the art of climbing stairs on the first try.

We got out of the house a couple of days last week and went for a walk in our new stroller courtesy of Grandma Lane.
